This sequel to the Albino Knife was well written but wasn't a favorite of mine. I don't particularly care for the brutality of this part of the world and I had a hard time relating to these characters. Would have liked to see a bit less action and a bit more character development.
I liked the book, but it was a little predictable.

- Epigraph
- The vilest deeds like poison weeds bloom well in prison air; It is only what is good in man that wastes and withers there; Pale Anguish keeps the heavy gate and the Warder is despair.
– Oscar Wilde, “The Ballad of Rea... (show all)ding Gaol”
Stone walls do not a prison make, nor iron bars a cage ...
– Richard Lovelace, Lucasta. To Althea: From Prison - Dedication
- This book is for Dianne and for Debbie.
