City of Songs is now our third adventure in the Seven Swords novella series and it is my favorite installment so far. Anthony Ryan manages to pack a whole murder mystery element into City of Songs and it was so so much fun. I mean to truly keep me on my toes and guessing for 160 pages, bravo. I think one thing that has been really refreshing for this series, (and I think I am just now noticing it) every story has been a different structure. Whether it be a heist, mystery, war, you get the picture. With Ryan telling each story in this novella series in a different way is what's going to give this series an edge. It will always be something new.
As for my one issue I have been having, I do think these novellas could be a tad longer. I will survive though. Like I said in my last review, this sandbox is really quite entertaining. Anthony Ryan has a clear vision for what he wants to accomplish with this novella series and I am having such a blast.
