The Tainted Cup Book Reviews
The Tainted Cup by Robert Jackson Bennett Book Summary
A Holmes and Watson–style detective duo take the stage in this fantasy with a mystery twist, from the Edgar-winning, multiple Hugo-nominated Robert Jackson Bennett
“Great fantasy detective stories are too rare, but Bennett—[a] rising star of fantasy—more than delivers.”—Charlie Jane Anders, The Washington Post
In Daretana’s greatest mansion, a high imperial officer lies dead—killed, to all appearances, when a tree erupted from his body. Even here at the Empire’s borders, where contagions abound and the blood of the leviathans works strange magical changes, it’s a death both terrifying and impossible.
Assigned to investigate is Ana Dolabra, a detective whose reputation for brilliance is matched only by her eccentricities. Rumor has it that she wears a blindfold at all times, and that she can solve impossible cases without even stepping outside the walls of her home.
At her side is her new assistant, Dinios Kol, magically altered in ways that make him the perfect aide to Ana’s brilliance. Din is at turns scandalized, perplexed, and utterly infuriated by his new superior—but as the case unfolds and he watches Ana’s mind leap from one startling deduction to the next, he must admit that she is, indeed, the Empire’s greatest detective.
As the two close in on a mastermind and uncover a scheme that threatens the Empire itself, Din realizes he’s barely begun to assemble the puzzle that is Ana Dolabra—and wonders how long he’ll be able to keep his own secrets safe from her piercing intellect.
By an “endlessly inventive” (Vulture) author with a “wicked sense of humor” (NPR), The Tainted Cup mixes the charms of detective fiction with brilliant world-building to deliver a fiendishly clever mystery that’s at once instantly recognizable and thrillingly new.

A great read!. Smart, well written, thoroughly enjoyable. A fully realized fantasy world with a puzzle box mystery at its heart. Every page is a treasure.
Murder mystery. Great murder mystery with a similar style to Foundry side, another RJB book. I like his characters and the world he built, at times his stories seem like they struggle to fill 450 pages. They start to feel a little drug out, hence three stars
Twisted whodunnit. Let me say first, sci-fi is not one of my favorites. I enjoyed this book so much. It was a slow go, for reading, so many names and strange things happening, but over all a really good whodunnit. If you enjoy a twisted thriller with a side of strange, you will love this one. A definite must read.
Good whodunit. Good page turner, as are the other Bennett books I’ve read. My only criticism is that it’s a bit derivative of The Founder’s trilogy where people are “augmented” in some way to give them powers. The difference here is that in this book, the augmentations are only on organic things, people, animals, plants. Nevertheless, this is a good mystery with great characters and good world building.
Fresh and interesting. Well written, interesting world.
