I was looking through the book to see how many pages I had left. Turns out there’s a whole summary of planets and characters at the end of the book!!!!

This needs to be standard. Even if it’s not the plot like this made me so happy so that when I start the next one I can remember

Some notes so I don’t keep forgetting who characters are

Valka: scientist of those weird things- Hadrian may like
Pallino: poor guy fighting for life- wants to buy ship
Switch: former prostitute now fighting for life- wants to buy ship
Gilliam Vas: the really ugly priest

He got kicked off his planet by his dad for not fighting in a gladiator match and now must fight in them for 1 standard year to get off the planet he’s on. Wonder how long it will take for him to become the complete opposite of himself in the beginning of the book

If they stay in emesh for much longer I’m gonna get annoyed. It’s Kvothe and that city he was stuck in all over again

You should know never to get frozen in an unknown ship smh

🤭🤭🤭

He’s gonna disobey daddy and get his servant killed

Literally the next chapter opened with “I know what it is they say of me, what they call me. The sun eater, Halfmortal, demon-tongued, regicidal, genocidal.”

So yea I’m going with a false Messiah type vibes

I’m getting Dune parallels: advanced civilization with bans on certain tech because of past issues. Energy shield belts. I also fear that uranium will be similar to spice.

Also idk why I feel like this is gonna be an unreliable narrator situation or false messiah type vibes
