And to think I waited more than 18 months to read this!
You’re going to have to settle for ✨✨✨✨✨ bloody stars because goodreads won’t let me give you more than that.
Anyway, this review is going to be incoherent so try to stick with me here.
It’s taken me less than three days to read this and every second I spent away from this book (and there were many for all manner of reasons) was a second I wanted to crawl back to the comfort of its pages. It seemed that every time I had to put it down something was happening that I didn’t want to miss.
It’s no surprise therefore, that I took it upon myself to narrate the events of this book as they were to my younger brothers. They don’t read half as much as I do but the first response I got was “I’m raiding your bookshelf!” (they don’t know I don’t have a physical copy yet) but you can already tell what kind of story this is (and I suppose what kind of storyteller I am).
"You should try not to talk so much, friend. You'll sound far less stupid that way."
It’s already too late for that, dammit! Anyway, enough of that. Let’s get down to the real stuff.
The Final Empire is… well, it’s quite simply fantasy at its best in the modern age.
That’s it. I have nothing more to say. What can I say?
