Sami Sundell reviewed Taste of Marrow by Sarah Gailey
Review of 'Taste of Marrow' on 'Goodreads'
3 stars
Hippoful story comes to an end
River of Teeth had an interesting premise that made it different from other Western caper stories. Taste of Marrow continues from where River of Teeth left, but it slowly runs out of steam. Where River of Teeth was warm-hearted, Taste of Marrow spends too many pages brooding. Its plot jumps around and it relies too much on the feral hippos to keep the story exciting.
The story ends in a perfect, hopeful note. On the other hand, Taste of Marrow also introduced a new character that could be a central figure for future sequels. Let's see what the future brings.
