A review by alanahreadsbooks
The Inquisition by Taran Matharu

5.0

Reasoning - Just as with the previous book, I loved this next instalment in the Summoner series. Meeting new characters and seeing all the characters from the previous book was extremely enjoyable, that pace of the book was very comfortable and easy to keep up with, and the twist of who the assassin was actually had my jaw dropping, my mind not once thinking of it being the character it was! It also had me scared for Fletcher and the others, showing how easily emotionally invested you become in the characters, and had me laughing at other parts, especially feeling relatable to Othello being able to sleep through anything and waking up oblivious to everything! The plot of this book was strong and there were no unnecessary side quests which I loved, and there are still many mysteries to uncover in the next book which I can’t wait to read! Yet again, I also loved that there was a demonology section at the end describing and illustrating the demons, along with a character list at the beginning so if I ever forgot who a character was, I could easily flick to the front and give myself a reminder.

Overall - This book had me as enthralled and enthused as the last, again reaching a 5 star read for me which I hope the next book can keep the standard of - which I shall be picking up as soon as I’m finished writing this review because yes, I did bulk-buy the rest of the series. I applaud Taran for yet another incredible book!
Would I read it again? Absolutely, definitely, yes!

Would I Recommend - I would recommend this book to anyone who loves fantasy, demonology and spell based, and loves an action-packed book with magical creatures and demons alike!
