Ashes of the Sun by Django Wexler
4.0
I went back and forth with my rating for this book. On the one hand, the world creates incredible imagery and imagination. In addition, the world and its history is slowly revealed to the reader. Adding mystery and a sense of wanting to discover more.
On the OTHER hand, there are 2 characters that I enjoy, and everyone else is just background noise. Not that they are bad, they just don't have much to them. They are just there. There are also 2 romances that happen throughout the book and they are both SO bad. Like cringey, awkward, and makes me wonder if the author has ever been in love. I kept reading certain passages to my wife and she couldn't handle it either. So awkward.
So it landed between a 3 and 4. Enough to give it a 4. Enough for me to continue the series...........if I was a betting man I would bet no.
