Just finished Three Parts Dead by Max Gladstone.

This book was so good! Can tell I really enjoyed it because I read it faster than anything else in recent memory. I have a pretty strong habit of only reading each day until the first major break in the action, but there were multiple days throughout when I just couldn't bring myself to stop where I usually would.

I absolutely loved how this book treated the traditionally "evil" art of necromancy as just like any other professional skill, drawing very blatant comparisons with practicing law, in fact. It even read a bit like software engineering, at times.

I loved every one of the major characters, even the main villain of this story, and the world building was really fantastic and didn't feel heavy-handed.

I will definitely be keeping an eye out for further books in this series and I'm sure I'll check out others by this author outside the series, too.

In my new interview with author Max Gladstone about his epic fantasy novel "Dead Hand Rule," he not only talks about how it was originally part of his previous novel, "Wicked Problems," but also how his "Craft Wars" trilogy will now go one more book.

Book 16: “Four Roads Cross” by #MaxGladstone.

After five books in this series, what else is there to say besides I plan on buying all of them? And happily re-reading, maybe in sequential order this time, maybe in publication order after that. Only then picking up the new books. There are few series I can think of that bring such perpetual pleasure: Earthsea, His Dark Materials…
