alxenterprise 's review for:
Dark Rise
by C.S. Pacat
This book would’ve been a tighter, more succinct entry into this series if it ended at page 329. It felt like the perfect enough ending to further the story a follow up book since we already established SO much and pretty much experienced a third and fourth act within those pages.
Instead it seemed like we weren’t sure that we were going to continue the story (which, cmon Pacat we know you’re a series girlie) so they bloated the book. 450 pages for the first entry is a task, and thats a big part of why it’s a 3.
As for the story? Interesting enough and overall good enough character story points to follow the plot devices alongside them to experience the twists and feel satisfied with them. There never any point felt like any one character was truly the standout protagonist: Will felt equally as important as Violet and eventually Cyprian, even knowing that the central “power” was for Will to awaken too, it felt like natural enough relationships between them that they support and empower each other.
I’m interested enough to read the second entry even tho I now have the understanding that these entries are going to be a commitment
