A review by liso
Black Man by Richard K. Morgan
4.0
This reads as an explosion of talent; rough around the edges, but it's got depth. Morgan has built a well thought-out world for his characters to live in, so much so that the plot of this book takes a backseat to pretty much everything else.
I'm writing this about 80% of the way through, and I don't expect that I'll need to edit my impressions based on the next 20%. For me, this book isn't the murder mystery, it's the landscapes, lore, and depth.
If you love to get lost in a world skillfully built and masterfully exposed, give this a read.
I'd award one more star if I cared about the plot in any capacity other than a reason to justify a constant change of scenery.
