although i’ve always known the intro line set up the tone of violence for the rest of the book i was somehow really not expecting it. extremely well written too (which i was not expecting), i’m happy i went into this sort of blind without an idea of the plot but wished i’d read some TWings before. not a book i’d really recommend to anyone but glad to have finally read it.
