this is... not bad. i saw her in the finest hours and she was ok. i haven't read the third book but i definitely think the first >>> second.

[xdecadentx]

they get progressively worse imo

first was a solid read, second was a bit meh and third i really struggled to get through

[wicked_g]

Yeah, 3rd book is constantly on the go for me...first one I zoomed through.

[la_petite_singe]

I think it's 3 > 1 > 2, personally.

[buttercup31]

It's 2 > 3 > 1 for me. But I read the first book, which was rough to get through, and listened to the second two and the narrator is AMAZING.

omg I love the audiobooks. They definitely increased my love of the series. <3 (I love how he kind of softens Robin's Oop North accent as they go on, heh.)

[mimblexwimble]

yesss the audiobooks were AMAZING

[turkwriter]

That's my opinion on the order too!

I definitely think 1>2>3 but it's because they got progressively gory. I still enjoyed reading them but I got pretty squeamish with 3 especially.

[bdl]

i thought the second book was really gory. the scenes from the book-within-the-book were really off-putting.

[verschreibsel]

I think they get better with each one. I loved the third one. Could hardly put it down.

[xmignonnex]

the third one is the best so far.

[whatyawaiting4]

Personally I thought Cuckoo's Calling and Career of Evil were equally engrossing and The Silkworm slightly less so. I really loved them all though!

[mimblexwimble]

nah the first one was terrible--if it wasn't jkr i don't think it'd ever have gotten published. completely cliched and predictable. the second one was much better and the third one was incredible. i can't wait for the fourth one!
