ridel reviewed Notebook by Museum Publishers
Review of 'Notebook' on 'Goodreads'
4 stars
I'm pretty committed to the characters and the series, but even then this is probably the most mediocre of the various Alexander Clay novels. It's challenging to express why this is the case without spoilers, but there's no major arc plotlines that are started or ended, and the character development does not feel like it'll have resounding impact in the future. That said, the events of 1801 (non-spoiler since everyone is aware it's about Northern Seas and the 8th year of war with France) are an enjoyable setting and so earns its 4th star.
