Morning Star by Pierce Brown

“But my friends have breathed love into me, breathed my faith back into my bones. They’ve made me want to live”

This is ultimately a story about love, and what you will and can do to take care of those that you do love. This first trilogy has effected me so deeply and I will never forget how it made me feel. Darrow, Sevro, Cassius, and many other characters will not leave my head soon.

I can’t recommend this series enough. And I can’t wait to continue on with the continuation series.

Good and solid series. Never elevates to Great SciFi and is stronger in the Fantasy and adventure role but the transparency in the writing style works in the book's favour making it entertaining and drawing you through the plot.

Loved the first book, but because i listened to the second and this one I feel like I missed out on important parts and am pretty lost. I'm not really sure what is happening anymore. So I'm dnf. I will be reading this again on kindle so I won't loose track of the plot.

What an ending. Everything was so good. I love the way Brown plots and keeps the reader engaged and knowing but also in the dark?? The whole time I didn’t know what was going to happen and I loved the suspense. This trilogy has suchhhhhh a special place in my heart. I loved the characters and the relationships. I genuinely didn’t expect this whole series to be 5 stars especially bc I’ve never really dabbled in Sci-Fi but wow. This just might be my favorite series yet.
