A review by bronwynheeley
The Fell of Dark by Caleb Roehrig
4.0
3.5 stars
I liked the characters a lot, especially August, Jude and Gunner and for the first quarter the story had me holding onto the book hard. at one point i even need to know how it ended and then more pages went by and it just dragged right up to an action packed ending.
about 150 pages in it just got boring. the same thing happened over and over again but with different groups until I had to talk myself into finishing it. the whole: "oh wait here's another explanation of what we want from the whole thing, and you, and no we don't give a shit about you--your not even really a factor in our minds" had the book dragging, from about the third time it happened, or "Here why we lied/we had to keep it secret." just became redundant and I just stopped caring.
overall I enjoyed it and I'd def pick up something else from this world, hell I'd pick up a sequel. he's got to be what he's meant to be right? but I also wouldn't be disappointed if this was it. I'm satisfied at the end and that's all that really matter.
*my apologies if this barely makes sense, I'm really shit at not spoiling things and making sense while i wanna talk about the spoilers.
