fornia 's review for:
The Emperor's Blades
by Brian Staveley
EXCELLENT!!! very nearly 5 stars but i just had a few quibbles
1. the amount of gore/death felt kinda excessive at times, but that might just be me
2. the training was unrealistically hard. like seriously??????? you really think that kind of treatment would fly? yeah sure they supposedly pretend they don't care that these kids are royals but there's no way they'd be put in such acute danger so regularly. that would be an immediate threat to the political stability of the entire known world of this dang book. UNREALISTIC
3. i want more adare. personally i feel like valyn was fairly well developed, kaden a little less so, and adare was definitely the least fleshed-out of the perspectives. i love her and i want more of her.
aside from those, i just wanted to say that this was an Emotional Rollercoaster because one of the characters has the same name as the boy i like and also i developed a mild crush on valyn w/in abt 5 pages. i miss ha lin and i think she was a tad underdeveloped.
