Dark Age
by Pierce Brown
"Some things are about the power of one. With what you have in your head, you need to know that. Now, if you can exist without tormenting me with sympathy. I'll show you what woman can do by herself."
FINALLY AFTER NEARLY A MONTH I FINISHED THIS BOOK!
I don't how to explain this book without spilled anything and my truth and honest opinion is

This book was narrated by 5 point of views: Darrow; Lysander; Ephraim; Virginia; and Lyria
And contains 4 parts: MISCHIEF; CRAFT; TREASON; and PRIDE
I feel like, the first part gave me depression. Truly, damn! So many anger, depression and non-stop war here and there. Darrow was just like a magnet, he absorbed everything around him, especially his enemies. Lysander, in the other hand still wanted to prove that he could be the one who take down The Reaper.
To be honest, I didn't quite enjoy the first part. Also, the language wasn't easy for non-English speaker or reader like me. lol..
This book is gorydamn complicated. Enemies, wars, new enemies, people deaths. SO MANYYYY THINGS. The Sovereign dealt with The Syndicate, Darrow dealt with Atalantia and her army, Sevro and Victra dealth with Sefi and Sefi dealt with Volsung Fa. MY HEAD HURTS! But, I enjoy it. I don't even understand.
I TOLD YOU THIS BOOK IS A MESS in a good way. This book is twisting with your emotions, feelings and guts.
It was broke my heart when my favorite characters die:
Spoiler
Read: Alexandar au Arcos and Emphraim ti Horn
I'm so pissed with Lysander, I want him dead. But, I love Lysander with his clever mind and complex character.
THE OTHER MOST AMAZING MOMENT of this book is when all the women (Volga, Victra, Lyra and even Virginia) could play terrific roles in this book. Virginia with her Sovereign mind, so smart and remarkable. Victra with her temperament character could save everyone. I wish we could have Victra point of view in the next book, yes please [a:Pierce Brown|6474348|Pierce Brown|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1417558860p2/6474348.jpg]?
Over all, I quite enjoy this book. It's complex but I kinda like it. Despite all the killers, murders and deaths of all my favorite characters. I forgive you, Pierce because you bring back my
