Absolutely loved this book and the new characters. As well as learning more about the main characters. Definitely going to get the next one.
laurla's review against another edition
5.0
-5 stars. Love this series.
“i have done things. Terrible things. Coerced or not, they were still my actions. I am not as blameless as my brother believes. And so, I hold myself accountable...to ensure that it never happens again.”
“what you feel is right. You SHOULD feel it. Without that remorse, you're no better than the monsters you fight. Those who seek to destroy you and the ones close to you – they feel nothing.”
“so i'm better than them. Good for me.”
“aye, you are. The warrior carves his guilt upon his heart, and he bears those scars proudly. For it is pain that drives him to action, and remorse that allows him to take lives when he's called to do so.”
“damn it, I'm not doing this. You dont know shit about it, and-”
“i would if you told me.”
“-and I want to keep it that way! Do you think I want you to know my pathetic story?”
“i never wanted anyone to look at me, at this, and have to carry the burden of WHY. That's my goddamn burden.”
“all right. But just so you know, that's what friends are for. To help carry the burden.”
“this was your idea, brother? I am impressed.”
“thanks, i'm only an idiot half the time.”
