Yeah it gets much better after book 1 and the second trilogy is a lot better than the first.
Ok, that's good to hear. Because while I appreciate there is potential in universe context for it, the very early book dialogue between the protagonist and his wife is... wow

Finished Dark Age.
I feel like Pierce Brown is punishing me for wishing for more characters than the first few books. By the end of Dark Age I was wishing for an index to remember who the hell some of these people were. I was needing just some team names by the end. Darrow plays for the Cowboys, Seffe for the packers, Lysander the Chargers, etc. Good god man.
704 pages of just non stop action really. Took me a little longer to finish because I was needing a breather.
Without spoilers there were a few things pretty interesting how they turned out. Ephraim and Ulysses in particular. I think what I'm excited about the most is how big of a bad arse villain Appolonius is going to be. Or at least it seems like he's going to be a tough one. Also actually pretty interested how things go with Pax. Actually really like his character and look forward to seeing him turn into a leader.
Going to wait until Brown announces a date for book seven before I read Light Bringer. My memory will struggle to remember everything if I read it now and he delays Red God.

“No honor.”
“No time.”
He is one of my most hated literary characters. Not because he is evil, but because he is a little bitch.

The second trilogy in Red Rising gave me anxiety attacks and was so fricking dismal, I had to stop reading it.

Just a heads up for John Gwynne fans his new book Wolves of War released this week to great reviews. It’s book 1 of a planned duology with book 2 due out next year.
I read The Faithful and Fallen by him last year and loved it. Haven’t read Bloodsworn saga or Of Blood and Bone.

Ok, as someone who didn't love the very beginning of the first book, I'm wondering if I should just walk away from this one now

I’m reading it right now. It’s blending the FATF and Bloodsworn pretty seamlessly. There is lots of mythology/fae lore coupled with his great character building. I’m happy with it so far.

I'm wondering how many different ways Gwynne can use magic with wolves. Pretty soon he's going to have to pick a different animal.
