‘Chain of Iron’ was one of my most anticipated books of 2021. Before reading it, I had absolutely no doubt that this book would be anything less than spectacular. Not once did it cross my mind that I may end up bored or disinterested given how much I loved the first book of this series. My only concern was whether I would be able to tolerate the emotional anguish I knew Cassandra Clare would dole out.

CLOUD ATLAS by David Mitchell
In this book, David Mitchell uses six short stories to present different manifestations of power and greed in different time periods. Whilst this premise sounds very exciting and cool, it is not immediately obvious during the first half of the book; and personally, I think this is where David misses the mark.
