David Scrimshaw reviewed Eight skilled gentlemen by Barry Hughart
Review of 'Eight skilled gentlemen' on 'Storygraph'
5 stars
This was fun.
If you enjoy gentle humour, fantasy, and foreign culture, the chronicles of Master Li and Number Ten Ox, are rewarding.
But I have to admit that I was sad to learn that Barry Hughart had intended to write seven books, not only three, in the series, but had a falling out with his publishers. And now he's gone, so we'll never get more.
