kaygrl 's review for:
Shadow of the Conqueror
by Shad M. Brooks
I'm gonna say 3.75 stars. I went back and forth on this one. Parts of it were awesome, but other parts were bogged down with SO much description and over explaining things that I was bored out of my mind. Also the main character is insufferable. He cries and wallows in self pity for being a horrible person but I found myself rolling my eyes a lot throughout the book. Okay, I get it. He feels bad for being a piece of shit. Can we get to the good part? Except he's also a huge asshole despite feeling so horrible? His growth shows toward the end once he gets his ego more in check, but he's still kind of a dick.
That being said, the world in this is fantastic, as well as some of the humor. It's very evident that Shad put a lot of work into this book and everything was very well thought out. The magic system was really awesome(aside from being over explained) and I loved how in depth he was with each race and made them all so different.
Overall, not bad!
