Ashley Barks’s Reviews > Empire of Silence > Status Update

Do I like this style of high fantasy writing? I’m starting to realize I don’t. I don’t want to plant anymore ideas, but i read a review where they compared this book to Name of the Wind, where the narrator tells his story and sometimes refers to the readers. I think I prefer to just be in the moment as first person character when it’s happening and remove the “reader is reading this as a diary entry”

Switched to Spotify from Libby. It’s been some time since I listened to the book so I just went back to a chapter that I remembered.
