~mini review~


Pretty much the only disappointing thing about Regicide was the lack of characters from Ritualist. Joe's old team is disbanded and the only really familiar face in this book is Aten; on the plus side, Joe's new team which includes a strongly accented Skald, a Monk, a duelist, and a girl with a lot of poisons, is a lot of fun.

It's good that I read Regicide straight after Ritualist because there is a lot of interlinking between them! All those unfinished quests from Ritualist, all those little hints from Tatum and the system are made important as Joe advances through the levels and gets to grips with his class. There's so much cool new game-related stuff including new rituals, skill combinations, new classes, getting thrown in prison, and a full-scale human vs wolf-people war.

Regicide was a funny, entertaining, enthralling read from beginning to end and I can't wait until the next one. In the meantime I'm going to go and try her other series!
