ish-i-ness reviewed Ninth Metal by Benjamin Percy
Review of 'Ninth Metal' on 'Goodreads'
4 stars
Ok fine I guess it deserves 4 stars. This felt like one of those Nordic-inspired atmospheric TV shows except theres also sort of superheroes? And a lot of commentary on the current energy boom, drug trade, general economic turmoil in places like South Dakotah. Which... Sounds interesting right? If this were a TV show I would be tuning in every week. As a book, it was entertaining enough and had just enough social commentary to sneak into four star territory. I could see recommending it to someone who wanted a lighter read that still has some intellectual meat to it, if I ever come across someone looking for that....
