Long Live Evil

It's hard to be a good villain...

This was a fun ride of a book! I, as will probably be the case for many readers of this book, love a good villain character, and I thought this book had some pointed things to say about who is the villain in a narrative and who gets to be the hero, and why. I really liked the characters, even the minor ones, and I think SRB's strength is in writing unlikable characters who you end up really liking. (Key! My love!)

As with the previous SRB book I've recommended here, In Other Lands, you'll either love or hate the main character, but if you love her, it's definitely worth the ride.
