    Well to sum it up I just feel a bit frustrated by the post DG chapter 40 reveal and how it removed a lot of the nuance and mystery surrounding the quiet, watchers, etc. I know Ruocchio is trying to put some distance between the books and Christianity by Hadrian constantly telling Edouard the Quiet is not his god, but reading the book, especially the end with Alexander stabbing Hadrian’s side like Jesus, it just feels so heavy handed. I’m trying not to be too r/atheism about it, I didnt mind the religious topics the series explored, but I just feel like making it basically an angels and demons battle with Hadrian as space Jesus was just the most boring and generic outcome when it could’ve gone so many directions. Not even to mention how bloated this book was - I really don’t think it needed to be 900 pages. Repetitive plot points, such as Lorian showing up TWICE in this book, not even mentioning DG, when Hadrian didn’t think he was coming. Cassandra and Selene just absolutely useless husks of characters. And I feel like he disrespected Orphan and the Irchtani so much the way he ended their arcs. Doriyaica’s death felt so anticlimactic too - just a bummer that this good villain gets killed by a cup from his little slave

    There’s more I could get into but I really just felt frustrated for most of this read. I did enjoy MOST of the major plot points, and there were moments I was absolutely locked in, but right now it’s kind of feeling like a 3/5 star read for me right now and I’m bummed out

    Ngl I been trying to get away from the book since finishing it, and I’ve put off really putting my thoughts down on it. My biases when it comes to religion unfortunately taints my perception of the last book especially. I can usually, and easily separate the art from the artist, but I think cause I have such a… bad relationship with Christianity it’s just too hard for me not to be like Hadrian is full of s***. Like he started talking in parables n s***, it was just too heavy handed for me.

    I'm going to start Kingdoms of Death tonight. Based on everything I've heard, its brutal and some people didn't like it.

    I'm honestly scared for it. Does anyone want to give their opinion on it?

    It is to be honest. I didnt find a single chapter boring or needless. The political parts were very intriguing and I enjoyed them. I do wish we had gotten more of Lin earlier in the book but I'm glad we get to read about him again
