Review of 'The Assassination of Brangwain Spurge' on 'Goodreads'
5 stars
One might mistake The Assassination of Brangwain Spurge for a ponderous read at first glance, but it was the actually most effortless read I've had in a long time. A not insubstantial portion of the hefty book is composed of detailed ink illustrations, but the clever text is the real source of its readability. With its adult historian main characters it's not interested in fitting any narrow tween adventure mold or talking down to the reader, but I hope precocious young readers will embrace its bold, unusual style and enjoy it as much as I did.
