The ruin of kings review5/12/2023 ![]() ![]() SIDE POINT: there are footnotes and god bless these footnotes they are so hilarious. It’s complicated and confusing don’t worry about it.” (I imagined the vanē as elven type people please no one correct me because Taraeth is my new Legolas.) And THEN ON TOP OF THAT we have reincarnation and rebirth!!!!!Īre you confused!!! I was confused!! At one point the footnote writer said, “Look. ![]() And ancient civilisations merging into newer ones. And then there were complex family trees. (“Yes I am your relative, just soul-swapped so now I’m not technically related but still!!”) And they all lied about their identities. It had an insanely complex family tree - made 500 x more complex by the fact nobody could stop swapping their fREAKING SOULS AND BODIES. ![]() It had a lot of trappings of a good ol’ epic fantasy: an empire built on the backs of slaves, dragons, assassin guilds, demons and wizards. It had weak patches (in my opinion) but overall it just captivated me. And this just came at a point where I was obsessed. I go through phases of being obsessed and then turned off epic fantasy. But the audio is A+ and I’m completely satisfied with my reading choice there.) The thing I love most about this book is it completely enchanted me. (Although partially this was my fault as I was listening to an audiobook and didn’t have a lot of time to listen vs I would’ve been faster reading it with my own eyeballs. I take a moment to self-five myself just because I’ve been reading for 3 months okay. I FINALLY FINISHED READING THE RUIN OF KINGS. ![]()
