Judicator Jane 4 by Brian Rouleau
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Good novel all the way up to the end. But that kind of showdown? I know it is fully set up from the start, but damn... it's annoying. I did enjoy everything else.

Funny bits when people don't know who she is. Deception bits that win wars. All that is pretty great.

But when you get this far and the "baddie" is being manipulated that hard instead of just being pleasantly surprised (my personal hope), it just feels like a setup for a tragedy.

These books have never really been that. So, yeah. I'm annoyed. Not enough to quit. I have to know what happens, of course... but still.
