5.0

What a freakin’ ride! Golden Son is even better than the first book. So, if you weren’t all that keen on the first, then please try this! It’s like the author has had time to flex and have fun with the story and characters. 

It's gripping, on the edge of your seat, addictive storytelling that's complex and intricate. The politics and strategy are a particular highlight. It's not heavy or a slog to read at all. It's dramatic and unexpected, like you can't really predict anything which makes it exciting. A thrill of a book.

I’m onto the next already.
