"Well written, with often quite lyrical passages and pretty sound world building. There is a self aware narrative with touches of self deprecating humour. However ultimately this is a book about fights and battles, each more destructive than the last, interspersed with some characterisation as the hero moves from situation A to situation B. I’m on 56% and not sure if I can be bothered with yet more fight scenes." — Jul 15, 2026 11:42AM

“Books. They are lined up on shelves or stacked on a table. There they are wrapped up in their jackets, lines of neat print on nicely bound pages. They look like such orderly, static things. Then you, the reader come along. You open the book jacket, and it can be like opening the gates to an unknown city, or opening the lid of a treasure chest. You read the first word and you're off on a journey of exploration and discovery.”

“What are you?" I whispered.
He shrugged again.
"Something," he said. "Something like you, something like a beast, something like a bird, something like an angel." He laughed. "Something like that.”
