A review by deepfriedaries
The Traitor Baru Cormorant by Seth Dickinson

challenging dark slow-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? Plot
  • Strong character development? No
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

2.0

I have neither the time nor the patience for cishet white men to write stories about queer characters simply to murder them or leave them in pain, isolated and self-hating. Skip the read, there are better things out there. Also, the fact that Baru is an account is really effing lame.
