theroyalsavage 's review for:

Dark Rise by C.S. Pacat

3.0

---

tragically i was a little disappointed by this one - it felt very logically threadbare (characters making decisions and coming to conclusions seemingly out of nowhere, especially will) and the nazgûl parallels were a bit distracting. im super invested in the world itself though, so im going to give book 2 a shot and hope it hangs together a bit better now that we have the major reveal we got at the end
