I have read every single book by Mr. Blake out there now. I happened to read the Assassin series the last, and I have to say what a way to complete Blake reading spree.King of Swords, in my humble opinion, is the best work by Mr. Blake so far. It's a lot darker than any of his other works - and for this reason, it's not my favorite book by him. See, I don't like dark grim tales in general. They make me depressed... more. But how beautifully and richly dark it is! Like a kind of rich dark chocolate. It's the perfect analogy for me. I don't like chocolate. But I do and can appreciate a great piece of dark chocolate, a very rare occasion. King of Swords is one of those phenomenal rarities. What a treat.
