That was nuts. I hardly have words for how good this book was. I loved how it started in the mines. The biological transformation was insane. I loved every part of the war game. The characters were amazing, I connected deeply with Darrow. Roque and Sevro were perfection. I couldn't stop thinking about Eo in all Darrow's decisions. All the cultural references back to ancient civilizations, like Rome/Greek gods, was fascinating too considering the "progress" made and time that has passed since Earth was all there was.
I'm a fan of sci-fi so I expected the word tech terms. However, some things could have been explained a little more or given more context. The world building was beautiful, though I do wish a little more detail was given to certain settings.
This was a fast-paced, not YA, sci-fi dystopian that I ate up like a pack of oreos. I'm dying to know what happens next. And what do you know, Golden Son just got delivered!
Pierce, despite belief, we cannot read your mind. Introducing your dreamt ideas without any explanation was cruel and unusual. This book takes forever to read because of all the re-reading and fake nouns. Really hoping you start offering more details as the series goes on or you’re gonna lose me fast. For now, enough action goes on each page to lock me in. To those trying to get started — good fucking luck!
Good book. 70% is build up and world building. Took a MINUTE to get through. Once it starts going it's hard to put down. Great character building. Many plot twists within the same chapter. Ending made mad, but excited to get to the next book.
