A review by shonari
Ascendant by Craig Alanson

3.0

I would have given this series five stars if not for the utterly unbelievable series of unfortunate events to befall the main character, Koren. Craig Alanson is an good writer and I loved his series Expeditionary Force, but geez, if book two of his Ascendant series is filled with any more dumb decisions and choices by his characters I'm gonna flip. Dear god, must they make one bad choice after another? I get it, Koren needs to suffer some trials and tribulations in order to become the hero he is meant to be but must these obstacles be dumb decisions made by people who are supposed to be leaders of the Kingdom?
