A review by quellek
Low Town by Daniel Polansky
4.0
I really enjoy this author's writing style. I sought out more of his books after reading the novella The Builders, which I highly recommend. He has a way with words that especially shines in scenes with intense or witty banter, which was accentuated in this case by an engaging narrator.
Unfortunately, the mystery/plot itself fell a little flat for me, and the resolution felt rushed. I'll probably read the sequel, although the second audiobook has a different narrator, which is a bit of a bummer.
Overall I'd give it a 3.5, rounding up because it has an addictive quality that makes up for a somewhat thin story.
