Chapter 4

At the end of chapter 4, the author talks about a well known event where Ann Boleyn and Henry VIII are in a play. The ladies are womanly virtues while the men are vice. The author says western racism is the reason the virtuous are in white while those portraying vice are dark. I wonder if the author has taken an English lit course, read plays, or listened to music?? Good vs bad. Light vs dark. Themes in literature and storytelling since the beginning of time. Is the author severely ignorant or a race baiter or both? Won’t buy anything written by this person again. Also, I only listened to 4 chapters, there was a few times where this got convoluted and boring.

So 3 books in and I’m starting to dislike the heroine. She knows people are actively out to hurt her physically and in other ways. Yet she never locks her door. She throws the door wide open not knowing who it is. She continually goes down deserted walkways and corridors by herself. And she puts herself in dumb situations. Yet somehow she is saved right before she is raped or beaten to death. Over and over and over again……Honestly she’s so dumb she never learns. Someone says I will get you, she immediately puts herself where they can get her. No surprises or wicked and ingenious plots to get at her. Why is she the heroine again?? Someone that thick shouldn’t be the main character. It’s boring and predictable

Disgusted with the beastiality and alphabet mafia. I can’t read a book these days without an anti woman pronoun bs being forced into everything. It’s absolute nonsense to have humans having sex with animal people! Do people really want to invision that? I don’t. I quit when he’s kissing a horse.

So disappointed. The main character is awful and so annoying. Then we have to listen to her complain about the unfairness of different classes. 2super long complaining monologues about the benefits of socialism. I’m so tired of woke left bs shoved down my throat daily. I don’t want it in my books. I liked the wandering inn in spite of the spoiled runner who is same as this main character. I’m done and tired with this.

I like the characters. Problem is, nothing ever really happens. A whole book leading up to a very quick resolution. I’ve listened to all of the audiobooks. It’s all the same. A whole lot of nothing happening. I don’t know why I keep thinking that will change. This is the last one for me. I feel like these could have been awesome. There are too many characters that are fleshed out and we never hear of them again. It just leaves you hanging very unsatisfied with a whole book of nothing happening. It’s a shame because I like the characters.

It reads as a boring re-telling of the history of the Targarians. Lists of names rattled off. I almost can’t believe this is the work of the same author. I stopped listening and am returning this title.
