Dark Age by Pierce Brown
3.75

Not perfect but I still enjoy the series. Definitely excessive violence, it’s getting more intense by the book. The pacing was a little strange. I loved getting Virgina’s POV and I liked the way Lyria, Volga, and Victra came together - they make an unusual friendship trio and I like that it came about. Very sad that Ephraim died, I did really like his overall arc though. I hated Lysander as I think most did but to me it shows Pierce’s ability to write characters well. All the perspectives felt very different and I appreciate that each character’s goals, motivations, choices, and personality are very distinct and complex, and they each felt they were doing the right thing.
