Imagine taking Sherlock Holmes and Watson and placing them in a fantasy, futuristic world with monsters, corrupt politicians, and magic. This is what you get when you read The Leviathan series by Robert Jackson Bennett. I was ecstatic when I was sent this advanced copy of A Drop of Corruption by Robert Jackson Bennett. I absolutely loved The Tainted Cup, the first book in the series and I was not surprised when book two was equally fabulous. A Drop of Corruption is a magical book. The world building in vast and descriptive, You can envision every aspect of the town. The characters are unique. It is reading a locked-door mystery in a fantasy world with sci-fi technology. It is everything you could ask for and more, all wrapped up in one excellent novel. I hope there are many more books in The Leviathan series because I want to read them all.
Thanks to NetGalley, Random House Publishing Group, Random House Worlds, Inklore, and Del Rey publishing. for the advanced copy of the book. The opinions are my own.
