A while back I was thinking, 'is Celine still writing and are there going to be any more adventures with Rory, Longinus and the gang?' It had been a while since book two had come out, so you can see why I was wondering. By happy chance I was flicking through the up coming releases in Fantasy and Science Fiction and lo and behold there was a third book coming out at the end of January. I authomatically pressed the pre-pay button and waited for it to appear on my kindle on its release date. Once I had it in my hot little hand (and yes my hands are really little), I got stuck into Slave City. It may have been a while since book 2's release, but Slave City was worth the wait. Rory is in top form as the impish urchin who says what's on her mind - she's not reknowed for her diplomatic tongue. Longinus is the smooth-talking Viper, an assassin with a fear of blood whose snappily dressed self glides through the pages of this latest adventure....well, mostly that is when he's not puking over the edge of Adelma's ship. This time our heroes have been tasked by Lady Martha to retrieve a Damisian machinist from the clutches of the Ayzir and help support the Ayzirian rebellion. With Celine's usual snappy dialogue, our larger than life characters fill the pages of Slave City as they lurch through some tense moments in order to accomplish their task. An all round great read and I'm looking forward to the next adventure set in the Viper and Urchin universe :)
Imagine having your station in life decided by a stud in your eyebrow. Ugh. Imagine living in a city separated into three tiers, each separated by high walls, each reachable only by a single set of stairs climbing ever higher with those on the bottom with little water and less hope, with those in the middle only sightly better, and then an elite at the top controlling the water supply for all. Toss in a not-so-secret revolution, a Romanesque circus, a mad ruler, an evil behind-the-scenes manipulator, and our heroes -- Rory, Longinus, Adelna, Cruikshank, and Rafe -- and get set for daring and scary adventures.
The authors detail and writing skill are amazing. This was a very enjoyable read as were her other books in this series. Pick up a copy, you wont be disappointed.
When I began reviewing this series, I looked at the characters in terms of three sliding scales: competence, proactivity, and sympathy. At first Longinus—the elegant, mysterious assassin—seems to be supremely competent, proactively controlling his life and choices, if (as a poisoner) he’s somewhat unsympathetic. While Rory, the street urchin, is at the mercy of a pitiless world, an orphan whose dire circumstances should demand our sympathy.Only…Longinus has a showstopper flaw for an assassin: he faints at the sight of blood. Not only does that punch holes in his competence and proactivity, but it immediately sends our sympathy levels soaring. Rory, on the other hand, is just so darn competent at being an urchin. Taking proactive control of her own destiny—even if “blackmail the assassin into making her his apprentice†might not seem the ideal strategy—she simply gets on with accomplishing her goal of becoming a master swordswoman.The newest release in the series, The Slave City, is set a fantastically well-imagined world of sword and steam-powered sorcery, with both Longinus and Rory starting again at half-mast for all three sliders. Under the firm control of the Marchioness and her daughter, they aren’t able to act proactively, nor can they follow their profession (freelance assassins). Both are questioning their own physical competence as well—Longinus because he’s epically seasick as they sail to Azir, and Rory because her life goal of becoming a master swordswoman is facing defeat due to her slight build. But both have also been defined in a significant way by the enemy they faced in earlier books. With no immediate enemy in sight, Rory and Longinus are each looking for their purpose and goals.The problem faced by authors of any series is that if you vanquish the enemy in each book, how do you move the series forward? There are two main ways to accomplish this, and author Celine Jeanjean does both. First, you could have the villain (in this case, Longinus’ evil sister Myran) vanquished but not dead yet, spinning off like Darth Vader in his escape shuttle to recuperate and plot again. Second, you could have your heroes take on an even bigger evil—in this case, slavery.Their group has been drafted to mount a rescue mission to the slaver-nation of Azir in hopes of retrieving their countryman—a Damsian machinist rumored to be working on an invention to enable his slaver captors to greatly expand their human trafficking. Stunned to find themselves honestly employed by The Old Girl (Marchioness of the city-state of Damsport), Rory and Longinus are now part of the classic adventure-trope, the five-man-band. If you look at another trope-defining example, Star Wars, their comparable roles are the following: 1. The Leader (Luke Skywalker): Rory, the skinny former urchin and now Logninus’ apprentice assassin is part of the team sent to the slaver stronghold Azyr to rescue a fellow Damsian. 2. The Lancer (Han Solo): Cruikshank, the genius machinist, is Rory’s direct opposite—tall, muscular, older, a thoughtful and meticulous planner who is nominally in charge of the mission. 3. The Big Guy (Chewbacca): Adelma, the hard-drinking captain of a smuggler ship is a massively powerful rage-machine tempered by three loves: drinking, her baby son, and her smuggling ship. 4. The Smart Guy (R2-D2 and C-3PO): Longinus, the elegant clotheshorse, is actually the assassin known as the Viper. His weakness at the sight of blood means he’s devoted his considerable and deadly intelligence to becoming a master poisoner. 5. The Chick (Princess Leia): Rafe, the aristocrat and master soldier, informs a frankly skeptical Rory that he’s her “love interest†and thus appoints himself her sidekick.As the five members of their little band attempt their rescue mission, they are forced first to confront, then to experience, and ultimately to aid the uneasy coalition attempting revolution against the evils of the slavers. By defining their real opponent—the institution of slavery—as the ultimate evil, any actions the team takes against slavers are by that definition morally imperative, and a signal to let the body count begin.Of course, that all adds up to a darker story than previous volumes. But the humor and banter between the members of the team keep things entertaining. Luckily for the five-person team, their enemies hadn’t read the Evil Overlord List. (“Shooting is not too good for my enemies." —Evil Overlord List, (c) 1996-1997 by Peter Anspach) Thus in their evil headquarters prisoners were kept together, potential hostages thoughtfully stashed nearby, useful dark corners abound to lurk in, and there are plenty of opportunities for strategic things they could blow up—all while Rafe banters about being the love interest, Rory searches for a new signature weapon, and clothes-horse Longinus sticks out “…like a whore in a convent, with his teal silk shirt, burnt-orange trousers, and hat with an elaborate teal-and-orange feather arrangement.â€As always, even as the individual characters’ sliders move, the entertainment of the adventure created in this series stays at the very top of the scale. Although I'd suggest you read the earlier volumes first, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it to readers looking for a fantasy quest with complex characters, a fantastically imagined world, a quirky team, and plenty of humor.*I received this book for free from the publisher or author in exchange for an honest review.
