So the world building concept is attractive. I love the show, so I'd thought I would read the books. But ohmygosh- the sexism, the sexual assault, casual groping by the protagonists laughed off as a character trait for that man, it is impossible to escape in this book. The author took the time to describe a literal child and her breasts after she gets turns back from a beast and then critizes her on how she looks ugly. Hell, a literal fourteen year old gets pregnant by an adult and it's played off as a good thing because it is 'destiny'. I don't think I am going to read the rest of the series, and if I do, I won't spend money to do so. Also- people on the internet write better sex scenes than this guy does for free.
