He Who Drowned the World by Shelley Parker-Chan

4.0

Wow. This is a hefty duology that covers *so much* ground. So much centers on desire - how strongly should we cling to desire? What is worth giving up? When is the price too much? What's left when desire is achieved? What if the reward is too little? This work had strong philosophical engagement with a plot that was moving and epic. This is a strong contribution to the work of dark, historical fantasy.
