"I’m giving this book by customary 50 pages (or the end of that chapter) before I decide if I’m continuing.
I’m not a fan of constant descriptions. I’m very much a visual person, so the endless details do nothing for me. As it is, I’m 32 pages in and most of that has been description after description. Many of which feel shoehorned in to extend the word count." — Sep 21, 2026 08:04AM

"Idk why my dumbass put it in the comments…
I’m working now. A whole ass desk job in an office. Which means answering phones. So… this is the first time I’m reading and not listening to the series (audio counts as reading 🖕🖕 🖕). Gonna be so weird." — Sep 09, 2026 07:55AM

An empire is like a cherry tree; if it is blooming, its petals must one day fall. If it is barren, its petals must one day bloom. Thus it has always been. —Book of Odes, 856

“Sevro." I lean forward. "Your eyes..."
He leans in close. "Do you like 'em?"
"Bloodydamn. Did you get Carved?"
"By the best in the business. Do you like 'em?"
"They're bloodydamn marvelous. Fit you like a glove."
He punches his hands together. "Glad you said that. Cuz they're yours."
I blanch. "What?"
"They're yours."
"My what?"
"Your eyes!"
"My eyes..."
"Do you want the eyes back?" Sevro asks, suddenly worried. "I can give them back."
"No!" I say. "It's just I forgot how crazy you are."
"Oh." He laughs and slaps my shoulder. "Good. I thought it might be something serious. So I'm prime keeping them?"
"Finders keepers," I say with a shrug.”
