A review by alawrence
Black Leopard, Red Wolf by Marlon James

challenging dark funny sad tense fast-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? Yes
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

5.0

5 stars for being one of the most original fantasy books I’ve read in years. 5 stars again for dear Tracker, our narrator, who captivated me with his brutality and his sweetness, just like his story. Fantastically done. James is an expert. 5/5 stars.
