Heavy spoilers
I'm reading the swedish translation
Aight
Y'all
My weave
It's snatched
First of all bann aint a boy but a girl
And then jesen, my lord and savior, is gonna be killed
I cannot.
Like my little bby nea has come so far?
Like she still has her insecurity but also,,,, i guess i'd call it a sense of duty thats making her push through it but she's also still making mistakes and keeping things to herself and she literally couldnt trust anyone until the very end where she was able to tell everyone what she knew, im almost crying just thinking about it like im guessing shes only 14-16 years old like she's a child and the first book just slaps our face by saying yeah she's gonna be discriminated against and you gonna suffer through it with her (if you have overpowered empathy like me) and im like aight aight, i'll take that abuse just like she has to
But jesen
Omh
First of all the pages thats from his pov are black on the edges
AND GUESS WHAT MUDDAFUCKAS THERES LIKE 8 THICC PARTS WITH BLACK EDGES IN THE FINAL BOOK
MY KING WILL REIGN!!! 🙌🙌🙌
Idk i just really like his char
Plus i was like eeewww they pushing he romance between nea and melker but then the author just went *slams book on table* BOOM Tam
And you go EY F U-oh... oh.... Oh! Eyebrows get raised to the moon or sun depending on what time of day it is.
I ship it
I really do
Like really badly
But bann/nea
V interesting char
I did not see her being female coming at all and i loved the description of how when nea realised that she is female and how banns facial features shifter a couple millimeters in her eyes like ugh *italian chef hand kissing thing* beautiful writing
Now as with the first book, this one was a bit hard to get through. In some parts my brain was enveloped and 30 pages whooshes by but in some parts i had to trudge to get through 2 pages. And i honestly dont know if its the writing or my stupid ass brain that hasnt been working. (I would bet on the latter)
Speaking of betting i need me some jesen fangirl friends cus holy feck. Flynn rider but a kind person still applies 💗💗💗
I'm weak for that man.... well i assumed it was a man
I dont the char stated it but i hardly doubt that this book was written with gender noncomformity in mind
So to summarise
Glorious book, a bit slow but worth every penny.
Nothing genious, new, or revolutionary but something i'd definitely recommend to teens wanting to start a fantasy series and dont want the shooking level of pages of eragon or the amount of war and death in eragon.
(I only say eragon simply because its my favourite fantasy series ever, this one might become second depending on the third book tho. But its nothing like eragon except for the fact of dragons and that the riders and dragons can talk to each other. Otherwise. Nada. Which is lowkey refreshing cus i aint emotionally ready for that level heartache today)
