The Tainted Cup by Robert Jackson BennettMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
Thank you to Netgalley and the Publisher for this ARC in exchange for an honest review.
4.5 Stars.
This book was really brilliant and absolutely an excellent read. I just could not put it down or stop thinking about it. I have to say that at this moment, this is my best Fantasy and Mystery book of the year. However, I feel sorry for myself because I haven't read anything by R.J.Bennett before this book. I can tell that he is a great writer and knew how to captivate his reader from start to end.
In The Tainted Cup, Bennett crafted such an exceptional mystery in an amazing and original fantasy world. Following Ana and Din in their investigation was so exciting and an absolute delight. But, in reality, they are fighting the curruption and the freedom of transgressing laws by the rich and the powerful to the point of costing human lives and which might be a reflection to our actual real world. Din expresses with honesty what might be our thoughts and feelings while witnessing these unjustices.
The author also created complex and deep personalities to his characters with different visions to justice and correctness. I, personlly, liked the character of Ana the most in this book, I could not wait for her to appear each time in the story with her deductions when Din brought her a new element.
My advice to you: just read it because you won't regret it.
