Evil for Evil by K.J. Parker

5.0

Parker's stories always start out feeling loose, like he sat down with a thread of an idea and just started writing. The further you get into his stories, though, the more you realize how well plotted they are, and that there's no way he could have written these stories without knowing from the start how they would play out. Evil for Evil is a continuation of the story that began with Devices and Desires, and together, they bear out a plot that doesn't exactly keep you guessing, because you never know that you should have been guessing until Parker reveals how all of his threads weave together.

I really liked the Scavenger trilogy, but if Parker keeps this story going the way he has in the first two books, I may have a new favorite Parker trilogy.
