A review by everlaerian
Age of Darkness by C.Z. Dunn

3.0

I own many books from The Horus Heresy but unfortunately Age of Darkness wasn't a hit for me. The writing was phenomenal but once I started short 3, I was truly bored. It felt repetitive even though they were written by different authors, with different characters and stories, it still felt the same in every way. The first story of an simulation was epic to say the least, the second story was long, and although I felt the pain of the characters, and the struggles of they came in contact with, it felt dragging. Afterwards, I don't particularly remember as my mind went blank.

I definitely want to give this book a second shot but it may have to be in a few months or years, as it just wasn't the right time for me. Which is sad as the writing, structural narration, characters design and development (even for shorts) was truly enjoyable.
