The City of Brass, S. A. Chakraborty

The City of Brass by S. A. Chakraborty is a book that I got from a list of science fiction books to read.  I cannot remember which list.  It is the first in a trilogy.

Started: 10/23/2019
Completed: 10/27/2019
Recommendation: Recommended
Recommended By:  A list of books somewhere

Review:

This story takes place in an Arabic mythology.  It is sweeping and it is extremely interesting.  Catching up on the mythology itself is a challenge, but worth doing while reading through.  The end has a twist that it is reasonable to expect, but that still surprised me and made me smile.  Wait for the twist and enjoy it when it happens.  This book really lays the foundation for the rest of the trilogy, but it is worth reading on its own as well.
