Finished The Obsidian Chamber by Preston & Child.
I really enjoyed the first half, however, the ending to me fell flat. So much build-up only for it to simply end without incident. No last-minute twists. No extended suspense. It seems the authors became disinterested or bored in this and made for a quick exit. Still, I felt it's a worthy 4-star but only just. Rated B- [4 stars].
Next, is The Fifth Season (The Broken Earth #1) by N.K. Jemisin.
