Equal of the Sun by Anita Amirrezvani
3.0
I really hate giving this book only three stars but I just couldn't give it 4.
As always, the author has great skill at character development and creating sympathy for her characters despite some if their actions and choices.
Though dialogue is not her strength, it seemed to be a little more 'natural' this time. Though her dialogue is still more stiff than it needs to be. I understand her need to create a sense of formality, there must be able to create that and still hear the characters' voices speaking.
The criticism I had of her last book doesn't become an issue for mr this time. The tone submerges me in the historical world she endeavors to create & never departs from it. Stylistically I believe I am in 16th century Iran in the court of a great shah.
