Ugh, what a bad situation they're in... truly tragic for the first terror...

Weird thought, but how does a decapitated head speak? Don't they need stomach muscles and lungs to be able to say words?

Heh, okay, i won't think about it too much, its book fantasy logic lol.

But damn, how do you kill a god? It's not decapitation, I guess it's being eaten?

When they describe bad things, it sounds like it's just a movie, like someone else's problem, like it's just something that happens everyday. But it was such a gruesome thing! And the 2nd terror still lives, nooooooo

"not everyone gets to say goodbye"

2nd terror is finally dead. 1 terror left to go and we still got half the book still. The last one must be hard to kill....

This book reminds me of Pan's Labyrinth. The "real world" seems to be wrought with war, and the "fantasy world" is just their escapism.

the flower is cut off from its stem. The red petals flowed.... what a poetic way to describe a beheading...

zoom out, zoom in

Finally the two main characters are in speaking terms with each other...

Can't wait until the 2 main characters get along as friends...

Wait.... Wait... What was that cliffhanger?!!!! Did Victor do it for real?!!!

Hmmmm I can already tell this new vampire Rinya is bad news. Hope this doesn't turn into a love triangle, what will become of my favorite couple?!

The plot twist deepens. Someone higher ranked than Hina and who has a crush on her? Oh no! What will become of Amanatsu and Hina?!

Future BR notes: I can see this book being a movie, each scene feels like a dream, and mists in each scene change. The author writes 3 different worlds so seamlessly and vividly (reality, performance, and fantasy world), and in different POVs that fills in alot of blanks. The villains are aptly named Terrors, their power so terrible and vicious, you'd hope they get overthrown soon & you emphatize with the ppl there.

Geezus, the emperor is so vicious. I hope he dies soon. I can see why no one likes him. His whole family is messed up!

Araya the drunk and the assassin. Keema the outcast rebel. Can't wait to see how these two develops.

This book reads like a whimsical fairytale, so smooth in its writing/storytelling. Very poetic in its prose. Pretty good so far, the story is really engaging. The worldbuilding unravels the mystery little by little.
Still unsure if it's all just a dream or if it's actually reality, both is woven so seamlessly into the story.

Rand killed Rahvin in the world of dreams with the help of Nynaeve.
Balefire was so hot it reversed time and Mat, Aviendha, and Asmodean got resurrected. But somehow Asmodean died again suddenly? Morgase seemed to be alive and not dead. Rand wants to keep men who can channel alive. Book 5 ends!
