The Book of Deacon by Joseph R. Lallo, Nick Deligaris
2.0

It’s not a bad book, merely...dull.

Considering we meet about four different factions, and within them quite a few individual groups, I still have no sense of what the world is like or even what it looks like.

There’s random exposition, but none of it serves a purpose to further character development or do more than cheat at explaining why factions are even there.

The characters don’t develop so much as randomly shift personality, and the dialogue is boring.

It has some cool ideas, but I dob’t plan on picking up the other books as I doubt they’ll be developed.
