Yesss, I never liked the fact that we got him as POV and always distrusted him. **WARNING MILD SPOILERS** When the meeting happens I thought "oh this is why Pierce was giving us his POV, he planned for Lysander to redeem himself by truly being a reformist somehow, allying himself with Darrow etc". But when his true colors showed I knew there was a reason I never liked him. That little greedy and entitled piece of scum

Spoilers Just feel like I have to say this but, Apollonius is such a good 'villain'. Among a bunch of snake villains with their scheming it's neat to see this straight forward and charismatic leader who'd even help Darrow recover for a duel. Also just really loved Diomedes. I was mildly disappointed that we didn't get to see him much in dark age and thought he'd end up just another honorable soldier that brings mild conflict to Lysander. His character really got to shine through though
@shepardice3775 Жыл бұрын
Apollonius is so great because he's not interested in cheap tricks, he's not inundated by fascist Gold ideology, he's just pure self-belief. He believes he can be the best and beat anyone on equal terms and he doesn't care what that person represents. He only wants a fair fight and if he loses, so be it. Actually no it's not that he doesn't share Gold's ideology of superiority, it's just that he thinks he can actually prove he's better on an even playing field. All other supremacists, whether in real life or in this book, don't care if it's a fair fight or not. Anything that reinforces their belief is good no matter how it happens.

I thought Light Binger was good. With Lysander PB does that marvellous thing where he lets the antagonist be the hero in the story of their life, and leaves it up to us to see how f-ed up he is. I truly appreciate PB's ability to write characters, how he lets them speak and grow and change, all the while being very clear with how the reaction of the character leads to the actions taken. I thought the plot with the daughters was a little too convenient but still rewarding. C's death was expected, it was sad and infuriating but at least I still have Lyria and Diomedes (I'm that person who loves the side characters who usually have terrible things happen to them, RIP Ephraim).

SPOILERS I feel the same as you about this book who is steel good and there are good ideas but sometimes too many "short cuts" are taken. For the goods: - Darrow hiding on asteroids and his crew depression after their defeat and Screwface caracter developpment who is the hidden hero who never betrayed Darrow and not never rewarded - Lysander as the bad guy completly now, while in the first book we could understant his hate against the revolution and his point of view, now he is the same as the others golds even if he can't admit it, he is hiding behind "yes but i will make peace later after that genocide" - Darrow who must take the responsability of what he did to the sons of Athena in morning star - Sevro and Cassius having a talk - Darrow finaly ally with Diomedes and Ilium society, the creation of a Trium. - The attack on Mars (phobos) was very good - Volsung Fa taking Ilium - Atlas character building - Lysander speach to save the alliance of the core and Ilium against Darrow - Quicksilver who could put an end of all those wars and give victory to Darrow long ago but desided to quit and "Taboula rasa" lol - Darrow new fighting style - Ilium destroyed by the obsidians - The plan to get Volsung Fa and hiding in the Leviathan was awersome - Cassius and Darrow finaly becoming bro again like in the institute, cassius and Lyria friendship was very good too. The Bads: - Darrow stupid unough to go with cassius rescue Sevro, and his team letting him... Darrow is an Archy Emperator he can not just put himself in danger like that... He new that it was Appolonius trape but he just decided to swing in the mouth of the wolf when so many people have hopes that he will come back and so many people are counting on his return. - Sevro plot armor too conspicuous, it would have been preferable in my opinion that he had his adventure with the abomination on his side and escaped to then send a signal of distress to Darrow. - Darrow who always cote the way of the vale as a philosopher who only read one book in his life realy annoyed me. He has already studied all the philosophy and read a huge contity of books during his formation befor the exam in red rising but he cote only his "way of the vale"? - Lyria and Volga plot armor, they are learning too quick . Volga became ALMOST a monster too quick... - Darrow giving the Obsidian democracy (lol) and they just accept and vote for volga... That is not credible at All, volga can not become the leader of all obsydians like that... we saw how manipulative the Obsidian society was with the atlas plan to create an obsydian hero and place him at the top of their pyramid. It is not democracy (which is just as manipulable) that will prevent these people from starting over. Darrow should have momentarily (the time of the war and the reform) accept the title of new king of the Obsydians, he is the only one really capable of uniting them because he is a God for them. Then as "God" gradually establish civilizing rules. - The Defeat of Volsung is too theatrical where he goes from island to island to be humiliated on europa to finally ask Darrow to spare him if "confes". This contradicts the portrait given to us by the author of the followers of Atlas who are apostles who are not afraid to give their lives to create a "lasting peace". It's "out of character" for me. - That was so obvious that Cassius will die at the end of the book i saw that coming since the begining. I feal like Pierce brown resurected him at the end of Dark age just to not have to kill an over big caracter at the end of Lightbringer.

Just finished the book today and it was a great read. My only complaint is Brown is starting to rely too much on misdirections. In the middle 3rd of the book it felt like multiple chapters in a row had twists. I found myself rolling my eyes when they kept happening. Lysanders character arc was beautifully handled. I was rooting for him so hard in Rome and couldn’t believe how much I hated him by the end. I kept thinking we were going to see a clash of two hero’s with different views of the world but wow he got evil. Unsung hero of the story was Diomedes. It’s tough to shine with so many other established characters that we’ve gotten to know for much longer but I would have run through some walls for him cuz of his speeches. Something’s tells me he’s going to win the morning chair. As for the super weapon. I have a feeling it’s not going to work at all. Or it’s not going to be a weapon at all. TLDR: Character stuff was really good. All the main characters has compelling arcs and grew a lot but some of the plots twists were a little ridiculous and felt like the middle part of the book was a little weak. 8/10

Spoilers: I feel like Apollonius is going to get killed from a bloodlust to kill Darrow after seeing how good he is with Breath of Stone.

After 6 books, all I can say is that I have mixed feelings, and I have them towards the killing of characters. They're mixed in the sense that you can feel a character is going to die, feel it in a sort of "meh" way, cause people keep getting killed. On the other though, you have the traditionally "for pete's sake, if this character dies, Im gonna be pissed!" I do wonder who Darrow will have left at the end of his journey. Or if he even will survive it.
