A review by nssutton
The Book of Blood and Shadow by Robin Wasserman

4.0

Wasserman's story gets a lot of inevitable comparisons to The DaVinci Code, with the search for religious artifacts and on-the-run pacing, but I feel it's more on par with Jennifer Donnelley's Revolution. I love that it is set in Prague, and the scene in the Strahov Monastery, the camaraderie and betrayals, the way my suspicions of whodunnit were confirmed without taking away my enjoyment of the final third. The ending left me feeling a little let down, but it's perfect within the context of the story.

Read mostly on the Northeast Corridor, even if it was finished on our Golden Girls-esque couch.
