There is too much dialogue in this series. I really like the story, but it feels like there is a lot of talking about what’s happening with short breaks for action in between. Maybe I’m just not the intended audience, but I really like the story. The tremendous amount of dialogue is easier to get through on audio because I don’t feel like I’m missing too much if I get distracted.
All that said, this book does a great job making you forget you’re rooting for literal gangsters. It’s a fascinating story and some really well-interesting characters.
