A review by mjchamplin
Victory City by Salman Rushdie

adventurous medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

3.5

Beautiful in its worldbuilding and commentary on the hubris of empire, but it lost me in the final half. It's too short to be truly epic, but too epic to be truly personal.
