Dark, soulful tales that haunt long after the last page.
Tigana by Guy Gavriel Kay My rating: 3 of 5 stars Overall, this was a good book. I never got so frustrated that I considered giving it up, but there were several spots where it dragged, where Kay seemed to drone on and on about things that weren’t all that important. If you’re into political…
