I'm kinda side eyeing the people falling for these characters. No shade. But, the overly possessive broody alpha male is kinda cliche at this point. Fuc####, saying "you're mine" like a psycho, and literally killing innocent people to "keep the FMC safe"....are walking red flags to me.

I'd like to know whose clever idea was to include the scene of Helena giving birth..and this is related to the war and the supposed overall plot because......?????
This is like the most anticlimactic and uninspired ending I have ever read.
Sorry to those of you who like this book, but this is trash.
Let's keep fanfiction into the fanfiction department, ok?

My dear friends, we made it. Almost there.
Part 3 is just pretty much of the same. Same recycled scenes over and over. Maybe some people like pregnancy tropes, but I loathe them. Specially when it's a forced one like in this book.
The writing keeps being atrocious. The guts some have to compare this to Tolkien or Rothfuss. People, inhaling fungi is bad for your health. LOL.

At 83%, almost 1000 pages, and here it is (at last) the plot twist that has fans of the author on the fence. Although I get where they're coming from, I don't think they fully understand how twisted this story is. And the reason why I disagree strongly with the way Senlinyu decided to portray this story.
I'll dive deeper about this on my review. Stay tuned.

Part 2 completed. Finally. It's been 84 years. LOL.
Part 3, I'm coming for you. Just a little bit more. We're almost there.

You gotta be kidding me that there's people swooning over this guy Ferron. C'mon. He's a huge walking red flag. He's super controlling and hella possessive. How is this supposed to be romantic? The world's gone mad.

At 65% (almost 810 pages), and given recent events, I think I'm starting to get the whole picture about this story, and I'm not liking it one bit, how it tries to play with your mind, making up excuses to justify what's unjustifiable.
Someone's past traumas doesn't give them free pass to harm others. Just my two tips.

This world makes less and less sense each turning of the page. Which time period is this supposed to be set? There are cars, and photo cameras, they know how to make plasma transfusions and complex surgeries too, they even have bombs. And yet they go around gear up in steel armor and wielding blades and knives. Make it make sense, pleaseeeee.

Some people need therapy but decided to fangirl over this book instead. But on another note, this is what makes the whole thing with “oh it’s not romance” is bull. Cause the whole book fits all the trope for romance and they… managed to romanticize a r*pist 😅

First, actually. And luckily. 😆. I don´t think I could make it a second time reading this. Noope. 😆 It´s taking all my strenght to keep going, but I´ll make it to the end.

It might not be your typical romantasy, but still, it is romance. It plays on the same tropes. She´s a healer, so obviously, he gets injured so she gets to heal him (forced proximity). Then he learns how to heal, of course, and she gets injured, so he gets to heal her. This happens for both characters not one, but like two or three times. So, it´s a lot. Then he also gets to train her, the whole I´m gonna burn the world and kill´em all for you, and "you´re mine".......not romance, my a$$. LOL.
Much respect!
