While I enjoy the arc of Daenerys in this, it's a shame that the show has left a heavy shadow on the book, tainting it somewhat. Also, the sexual violence in this got to a point where I didn't want to read anymore. It was just completely unnecessary for any plot points.
Content Warnings
Graphic: Rape, Sexual assault, Sexual violence
Some of the worst and awful SA I have ever read.... including scenes that involve an animal. JUST SKIP THESE PARTS IT IS NOT ESSENTIAL AT ALL TO THE STORY. JUST SHOCK FOR SHOCK'S SAKE.
