Oooooh are we gonna have the "good guys" escape from the Ben-Elim and go on their own adventure?

Yes Please.

Something about the way John Gwynne writes the little character moments makes me feel like they're all important and are really flushed out people.

Characters have tempers or autism or are stoic and it is really well rounded out.

I do really love his writing.

Using the old Alfred Hitchcock suspense method is rarely a bad choice. Giving the reader information that the characters don't have. Can't wait to see how this unravels.

The Beacons are lit! The Kadoshim call for aid!

That was interesting! Alcyon telling a story of a battle in the past! I wonder if they'll tell me what happened to Corban and his sister after all of this.

It just makes me feel good to read.

Oh No! This might have that same trope that John employs in The Faithful and the Fallen series where everyone important manages to get away until they're finally killed off.

I remember Lykos deserving to be killed for a long time and should have been killed at the end of book 3 in the previous series.

BUT I LOVE JOHN GWYNNE and I hope that this chapter was just foreshadowing that Olin used to be a serious warrior!

It's fun, I am sure it's gonna be really good. Because I LOVE John Gwynne's writing and story telling and world building.

Been a few days without reading but I am happy to be back to this book.

Ohhhh it's just so good. I wonder what the twist is going to be, what is the stone that Riv found? Is Sig gonna be awesome? I think so.

I love the pacing of John Gwynne, always something interesting happening in each chapter and always makes you want to read their bit again.

What a great start, I already dislike the Ben-Elim again!

So glad to be back in the Banished Lands. Bloody love me some John Gwynne

Ooooooh a fun start, didn't expect the Ben-Elim to immediately be evil bastards

Oooh it feels like a DnD campaign written down now!

Gonna finish this book today I think :)

Yay, we're getting to the main chunk!

I aim to finish the book today or tomorrow.
