Another sneaky, unreliable narrator
3 stars
Second in The Siege series, this has a different protagonist, and the city has been under siege for seven years. I didn’t enjoy this as quite much as I did the first book, and I find our hero, Notker, to be awfully similar to Florian, another of Parker’s protagonists from the Saevus Corax series.
Even though it was not as much fun as the first book, it’s still an enjoyable read, and I really do like all the technical warfare bits. Considering how this book ends, I really do need to find out what happens in the third and final instalment.
