Morningstar was a great! Especially loved how Darrow's character arc came full circle, cold and calculating meets impulsive and unpredictable. I think he's more Gold than Red now, at least in the way he thinks.

What I didn't like about it was the unresolved threads, trust you know the ones I mean. Feels like it needs another spinoff to round things up. Oh and I also hated Mustang for the whole "judging him worthy" thing, didn't make sense especially when Darrow did that thing he did to Romulus, and she didn't find out. How on earth didn't she find out??

Also, Sevro!!! My new favourite fictional character! I wish NL had the option of changing one's moniker. I would drop moneyallowed and adopt Sevro, or Howler 1

spoilers for morningstar below

yeah Mustang reasoning was flawed Darrow's mother reason for keeping Pax a secret made more sense.
my favourite part about the whole book was how "peace didn't ultimately reign immediately" we still have hold out all over the galaxy and Darrow giving up those son of Ares to Romulus and the blowing up of his dockyard with colours still present made it more realistic.
if I had any complain at all it will be about the jackal wish we knew more about him aside from being a smart,psycho "that want to be loved motivation" doesn't do it for me.

concerning unresolved thread do you mean the ashlord,Romulus and the gold war lords ?

All of the above. I'd love to see how that turned out.

That part you mentioned was my least favourite, did he have to give them up? I still hate Cassius, inspire of his redemption, and I dislike Mustang. Trust an Augustus to end up in power when all is said and done, the snakes! Just like the Lannisters, you can never trust em

I think he had too ,sometimes sweet talking and reaping just don't work,sacrifices must be made.
The power struggle between sevro and darrow in the earlier chapter was brilliant,also he lost his skill with the blade.
The only character I really hated was Antonia no redeeming quality whatsoever Roque,Cassius and thistle had some.
You know the Golds will never agree to be ruled by Darrow. Mustang as the leader was always the end game.
I could go on and on about this book
I don't think I have ever been more satisfied by a trilogy.

Have you read butcher's aeronaut windlass ?

I'm looking forward to Fall of Light (Kharkanas Trilogy - Steven Erikson), The Last Mortal Bond (final book of Unhewn throne) and Blood Mirror (Lightbringer series).
Yea Hollywood is a bit hit and miss with adaptations but they're looking serious about Red Rising. I think they see the potential. It's Universal so that's good I guess

Now reading The Kind Worth Killing by Peter Swanson. Hopefully, it'll be much better than the last thriller I read; NYPD Red by James Patterson. Before that, I read Night Music by JoJo Moyes which isn't Me Before You. Before that, I read Marrow by Tarryn Fisher. I've been busy. Lol.

TBH, Terry Goodkind should have ended the series at confessor. Great ending. Cara found love,Nicci got vengeance, Jagang got served etc. But no, he had to create those silly sequels. Why kill Zed? Why kill ... angry

I just finished Flint by Louis L'Amour, that was actually the second time I'll be reading it. I'm feeling so western these days, so I just converted all my Louis L'Amour to PDF cool.

Nope. First confessor is different from Confessor. First confessor is the legend of Magda Searus, it's not part of the series. Confessor is the 11th(and last) book of the Sword of Truth series, after Chainfire. That was where emperor Jagang was killed, Richard divided the world into two, Cara married Commander Meiffert etc.
The omen machine is the first book of the sequel to SOT. It was themed; the story of Richard and Kahlan and it marked the beginning of Terry Goodkind's(the author) insanity. He just started writing nonsense.
The third kingdom is the second of the squel.
Severed soul is the third - yes, it's just a load of underworld gibberish!
Warheart is the fourth (and last) book.
