A review by lorialdenholuta
City of the Saints by D.J. Butler
2.0
I continued with Volume 2 of this series out of sheer curiosity to see if the storyline would improve or collapse under its sheer weight. The first 2/3's of the book were as confusing as the previous book - the last 1/3, finally, the plot hit its stride and was quite an enjoyable rollercoaster.
The characters, while definitely unique and detailed, are problematic. I couldn't make myself accept already-famous real life characters re-tooled into these guys. It just didn't work on a level I could roll with.
Bizarrely, I will keep reading the series. It's like watching a really big, impressive fancy train in a slow motion wreck.
