its like a better (straight) six of crows. dont get me wrong, i fucking love six of crows, However i have my problems with it, ESPECIALLY all the deus ex machinas. but in this book, our main characters dont quite get everything handed to them so easily as Kaz and his gang
one thing i did not like , though, were those short “interludes” where its just kinda lore dumping about the world. at the start, the interludes were backstory on locke and the gang, which was great, but when Scott was done with that, ig they just decided to , again, lore dump about the world, which was incredibly clunky especially when shit was going down, chapter end, interlude about this guy named Markos and how hes just the average british citizen when it comes to football. and the whores of Camorr and this throne n shit. just broke up the story when i cared about wtf was going to happen to locke, suddenly im forced to read about this asshole markos. fuck you markos.
anyway, highly recommend especially if you love six of crows.
i want muhmed to fucking die or whatever his name is
otherwise good book hate the sexism but it takes place in fucking 1400 so thats to be expected. ill try the sequel. hopefully i wont want to kill myself as much as i did reading this one
Lots of loose ends Maggie seemed to have forgotten about lol. Owens daughter? What happened to her? The twins? Noah? Like what happened after lol
I liked it but ¿¿¿¿¿¿ where was the ending ? It just. Ended. But no ending . If that makes sense
What??
was going to be a 5 star if the main chara actually did get hanged. i love bad ending books and there aint enough of em. honestly the ending was so.... lucky lol
What the fuck was that shit ass garbage?
slurs galore, extremely sexist, incest galore, roman likes cutting himself because hes edgy. incredible. i cant believe people like this shit
not to mention is writing is so shit ass hot dog water bad i cant fucking tell what is happening most of the time. i had to reread paragraphs often just because of that fuck ass writing. makes me feel better about my own writing
what a fucking gross book for no reason bro
In acknowledgements the author thanks God
My brother in christ god does not like this either
plot almost identical to children of virtue and vengeance but characters and execution WAYYYY better. i had my problems with the writing and romance but writing wise this is Faizal's first book so i'll let it slide
One of those shitty books where every male chara is a sexual assaulter or rapist because of course. Hot dogwater garbage I wouldn't read more if you put a gun to my head. Also the romance with yennefer made shitty ya romances look like the best romance in the world. Seriously, they know each other for max 2 hours and somehow love each other? Fucking hell
would be a higher rating if agnes and her failed abortion didnt exist in this book
also dont read if you have a hatred/phobia of pregnancy as agnes is a stupid cunt who gets pregnant. the amount of pages i skipped cause her bitchass kept talking about her titties aching or some shit is astronomical
unnecessary romance (quite literally instalove, not even joking) but otherwise nothing to complain about. nothing to rave about either lol. it was just Ok
short n sweet wholesome romance. wasnt terrible, but ive read better. a huge complaint for me would be the conflict at the end that all romance books need, it was terrible lol like i understand mayas reaction but why tf did that damage their relationship?? also sophie fuckin sucks holy shit shes annoying
other than that it was aight
music listened to: Dragon Roost Island from Wind Waker !
time taken to read: 4 hours !
excruciatingly disappointing book. the relationship sucked ass, theres like 20 fucking plot twists and betrayals and it got old. I wish i didnt spend money on this
