Ugh I thought I was going to love this book. Sadly the synopsis really does it a disservice. The synopsis talks all about the "Savages", and Evie—a warrior on a mission to find the man she once loved. It sounds epic. But Savage Legion isn't just about Evie; there are actually three different points of view.
This completely messed with my expectations. I expected a brutal, cutthroat book about a warrior. What I got was ⅓ of that, but ⅔ other stuff, including politics and inventor/propaganda stuff. That isn't necessarily bad, it just wasn't at all what I expected from this book. I went in wanting a very specific thing to scratch a very specific itch (like one woman army “kill them all” type stuff), and I got something very different.
I'm sure this is still a decent book, it just wasn't at all what I expected. I stopped reading 30% through.
