Book Review of The Gods of Gotham (Timothy Wilde, Bk 1)

The Gods of Gotham (Timothy Wilde, Bk 1)
Helpful Score: 1


I have mixed feelings about this book. I loved the main character and the storytelling drew me in right away. It is well written and the times and events of the Irish immigrants and the changes occurring in New York as the Police Force is established make interesting subject matter. However, I found some of the subject matter and events to be gritty, graphic, and more disturbing than I could say I enjoyed reading. I am squeamish when it comes to the welfare of children, so I would just say beware of intensity of content.
