RE: [from news] Fool's Assassin reviews roundup - Mervi - Jul-09-2014

Just a heads up: there's a Kirkus review (which I'm not going to link to) of Fool's Assassin that is really horribly spoilery. I'm getting the sense that the reviewer didn't much like the book and that's why they thought it didn't matter that they revealed huge spoilers. It's basically all the details you could find hinted at in other reviews put together and described in more detail. Very disappointing from a well-known source of book reviews.
