is 25% done with Gunmetal Gods: I've been meaning to check out Zamil Akhtar's series for some time now. It's pretty good so far. No gods, but plenty of death.

| Better than book 2, but no where near as good as book 1. The introduction of en empath feeling the aliens was just a bad choice. Too often used as a pointless mcguffin. With bland settings, uninspired action scenes. All in all, another attempt to do ...more | |

Well, I finished it... I'm going to stay positive. This is a masterclass in worldbuilding. Details and vivid descriptions abound (too abound?). Everything else fell woefully flat to me. I won't be continuing. ...more |

“You say glory, necessity, pride; I say barbarity, greed, arrogance. War is a search for glory, for that particular sense of joy and satisfaction that comes from staking one's life on the outcome of a gamble. The search for a cheap thrill, with a cost too dear for Midas, and on a pretext that, more or less, amounts to 'My neighbour has a thing. I want it.”

“Power ain’t what ya reckon it’ll be. Don’t mean ya get ta do what ya want all the time; means ya gotta do what every other fucker wants. Much better bein’ the knife in the darkness than waitin’ fer it ta come for you.”

“Jezzet there isn't a man in this room who hasn't spent at least some time staring at you and you're without doubt the most graceful person I've ever seen. I'm sure you can find some way to distract them. Failing that just start ... you know ... killing people."
"Killing people?" [...]
"Yes. with a spoon if you like.”

“We teach girls shame. “Close your legs. Cover yourself.” We make them feel as though being born female they’re already guilty of something. And so, girls grow up to be women who cannot say they have desire. They grow up to be women who silence themselves. They grow up to be women who cannot say what they truly think. And they grow up — and this is the worst thing we do to girls — they grow up to be women who have turned pretense into an art form.”
