A review by ikepauh
Land of the Beautiful Dead by R. Lee Smith

5.0


I was hooked from start to finish. Not as gripping as 'The Last Hour of Gann' but still, I wasn't always sure what would happen next. Why so? Maybe because a large chunk of the book was set in Haven as opposed to say, in the Last Hour of Gann where Meoraq and Amber travel vast distances (another great R.Lee Smith book yall should check out). Nonetheless, I was totally blindsided by Lan dying from radiation poisoning.

The story of a not-Man and his dolly. How I wished I was articulate enough and up to the task of writing a review that this book deserves! Not-Man and dolly are gross descriptions of what Azrael and Lan are...so ignore that. And reading being BORING? Puh-lease, sis...don't get me started! Then again, she was raised in a different world, a different time....

4 stars
