Critical Role: The Mighty Nein — The Nine Eyes of Lucien by Madeleine Roux
5.0
I think this goes without saying that this review contains spoilers for both the book and Critical Role Campaign 2— which I definitely recommend watching before you read this book!
This book was everything I wanted it to be. It opened up the window into the mind of arguably one of the best CR villains ever.
It gave us the backstory on Lucien/Mollymauk that we never got due to his untimely demise.
It also showed us fans of the show that Mollymauk was never truly gone.
I loved seeing Lucien struggle with the Cognozua and the Somnovem. The use of font changes to show his mind fracturing was AMAZING and really brought the whole book together.
I devoured the last 200 pages in one sitting and, even though I knew how it ended, I found myself amazed at how that ending was portrayed from Lucien’s POV.
I 100% recommend this book to anyone who loved campaign 2 of Critical Role and was heartbroken by the loss of Mollymauk. This book helped heal some of those wounds ❤️
