pickThings go from shady oppressive government to running from a hostile government takeover (that we all saw coming) really fast in this volume. I'm always a fan of knowledge keepers providing safe haven. I really enjoyed watching the characters and story continue to develop, and feel like we got even more beautiful panel breaking art. #Comics #PoliticalIntrigue
pickThis is a solid well written fantasy with romance. It took me a while to finish, but I did appreciate the solid world building. It just felt much longer than it actually is, I‘m not sure if it was me being distracted by work this month or the writing, so I still recommend and will at some point continue the series. 4⭐️
Alas, I‘m gonna bail on THE TYRANNY OF FAITH at 32%. It‘s the right book for a plot-driven reader, or for one who really connects with the characters, but it‘s the wrong book for me. I‘m bored and frustrated more often than I‘m entertained, and I feel like certain of Swan‘s storytelling decisions destroy the tension. If I had stronger emotions about these characters, I‘d probably have the opposite take. Since I don‘t, I‘m out. 😔
pickReview is up! Interesting.

pickI really loved Naime from the first scene. Makram was also an interesting character. I adored their chemistry.
I loved the atmosphere, it felt exotic and had awesome political arguments. I loved those tensions! This was also quite intriguing because there was a thread of war present and people had their own opinions what to do about it.

pickIt takes a couple of chapters but when this one gets going it is relentless. I pretty much read the whole thing like this 🫣 & will have to read it again, more slowly to get everything. Impossible to look away from this complex, intricately plotted story that rages, tortures, despairs, & reminds you to never trust anyone. And just when you & the characters think you have a grasp on things, WHAM, you realize that you don‘t. And the ending…so good.
pick🎧I loved this book! Book 2 in a fantastic fantasy trilogy.
A mysterious illness, an unrequited love, more darkness, TEMPLARS! Darkness! What did this author leave out? Nothing!
Great narration! I wish I could have waited to read this cuz now I have to wait wait wait …
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
