is 25% done with The Emperor's Blades: This is a re-read(listen). I was fancying a bit of epic fantasy on the darker and it's been a good handful of years since I first read this. Turns out it's still really good! :D

| I really enjoyed this one. Wasn't sure what to expect going in, other than a retelling of a Greek myth. I'd say it does the classical Greek stories justice with plenty of intrigue, a healthy dose of romance, meddling gods, terrible monsters, and of c ...more | |

| JA Andrews excels at a kind of low-threat-level, slow-burn fantasy. Perfect for fans of classical high fantasy with all the old races you've come to expect, but a story that's more about the strength of kindness than skill with the sword. ...more | |

| An excellent read. Kinda like a D&D adventure with PTSD. If you like dark epic fantasy with a gothic feel, fraught with danger, and with an air of Elden Ring about it... this is for you! | |

“You say glory, necessity, pride; I say barbarity, greed, arrogance. War is a search for glory, for that particular sense of joy and satisfaction that comes from staking one's life on the outcome of a gamble. The search for a cheap thrill, with a cost too dear for Midas, and on a pretext that, more or less, amounts to 'My neighbour has a thing. I want it.”

“Power ain’t what ya reckon it’ll be. Don’t mean ya get ta do what ya want all the time; means ya gotta do what every other fucker wants. Much better bein’ the knife in the darkness than waitin’ fer it ta come for you.”

“Jezzet there isn't a man in this room who hasn't spent at least some time staring at you and you're without doubt the most graceful person I've ever seen. I'm sure you can find some way to distract them. Failing that just start ... you know ... killing people."

"Yes. with a spoon if you like.”

“We teach girls shame. “Close your legs. Cover yourself.” We make them feel as though being born female they’re already guilty of something. And so, girls grow up to be women who cannot say they have desire. They grow up to be women who silence themselves. They grow up to be women who cannot say what they truly think. And they grow up — and this is the worst thing we do to girls — they grow up to be women who have turned pretense into an art form.”
