What’s worse is that this writing style renders everything as rather basic and simplistic or unintentionally humorous. stars rounded uppp; well, smack my ass and play it like a drum because this was actually d-e-l-i-g-h-t-f-u-l. Corayne is supposed to be the main character, she’s the Chosen One to save the world, yet I feel like I know Sorasa better than I do Corayne. You can change your choices at any time by visiting Cookie preferences, as described in the Cookie notice. Because power is a treacherous thing—it haunts and it blinds, and she is haunted by its slippery nature just as she is blinded by its alluring rush that fools one into thinking you can cross any line without consequences.

I will say that some characters are a bit more fleshed out than Corayne or her perfect squire-boy Andry, however. One thing that I did notice was while there was a lot of attention on the characters (there were often many povs for the same or similar events) there wasn't a ton of character growth. Designed to cater to a variety of blade sizes this blade box is suitable for our SAB-10 and AB-10 blades, as well as larger cutter blades.With its flat rectangular shape and practical retaining clip, this blade box is also suitable for thicker leather belts or pocket flanks. The cast is so colorful and fun and has genuine chemistry that even their boring travel montages are made entertaining through their biting remarks and dialogue. Comment by Juvia77Just commenting to say that, as of 5 Feb 2021, this quest is still spawning, and I was able to pick it up on both of my warriors on the same day. It also feels so fake that all of the characters temporarily stop treating Valtik like the dirt under their shoes after she saves the day again.

Granted, I am at level 101 right now but I am curious if it's just me or if this is a balance issue to report to Blizz. While I was fully invested in immortal himbo and snarky assassin, I was less interested in Corayne and Andry. In the second book in the Realm Breaker series, Corayne and her unlikely companions struggle to continue the fight for the survival of Allward.I much prefer this to red Queen now, however the two are very different, liking red Queen deffinatly does not mean you will like this series. Erida and Taristan are probably my favourites, which probably shouldn't be the case, but they have such a great story line and I love the chemistry between the two of them so much. Queen Erida’s army marches across Allward with her consort, Taristan, right beside them, opening more portals into nightmarish worlds, razing kingdoms to the ground. The Bladebreaker Clan is a clan of Green Orcs in Inner Castanor led by their Chieftain Varok Bladebreaker, who took part in destroying the Blademarches and claimed to have broken the famed blade Calindal.

Se il primo volume mi aveva (abbastanza) stuzzicata, questo secondo si è rivelato decisamente meglio, con bei capitoli di viaggio, ma anche di guerra/assedio e di battaglia. She is the brain and he is the blade, she is the cunning politician and he is the unstoppable storm, both impressed by the other but held back by their reservations even as they comfort and worry for each other. Her character’s struggle with these questions is woven quietly through all these pages and I can’t wait to see who she comes out as by the end. A struggle that is beautifully symbolised in her feelings about her inherited sword—sometimes a comfort holding her up, sometimes a weight dragging her down. And honestly, even the 3 teens in the cast of 9 MCs and the occasional YA-ish plot clarifications can’t stop me from saying this should just be Adult.You are a woman now, the last of your childish hopes and dreams bleeding to death before your own eyes. As more comes to light about Sorasa’s past, I was more interested in Dom’s reaction to it than what the novel told readers about her actual past itself. And then there is Valtik, so unassuming and jaunty yet viciously clever in her attempts to spread herself and help as much as she can.

Erida and Taristan are two sides of the same coin of anger, ambition, jealousy, and self-righteousness, understanding each other despite their opposite upbringings. I can't believe I'm saying this but I'm giving myself a reading slump and I don't want to do that with blade breaker. I literally cannot imagine all of these characters standing around thumping their chests and saying “with you” and thinking it meant anything significant, other than that these characters weren’t afraid of being embarrassed. What Waits, the patron god of Taristan and his wizard, can’t get through the current barriers and is counting on his minions to tear all the walls down, so he can come through and destroy everything in his path.And she finds herself caring for her Companions in a way she used to of her fellow assassins back in the Amhara guild. The two relationships between Eridan and Taristan and Dom and Sorasa show the most complexity and nuance this series has to offer. But in Blade Breaker, these attempts at witticism feel super cringeworthy to me because it’s clear that the novel wants so badly to be funny and just cannot manage it.
