The Tyranny of Faith

i felt countless visceral urges to pause reading so i could catch my breath. only to turn to the next page and have my jaw drop. again.

this is a world that gets bigger and bigger, darker and darker, and more deliciously horrifying (and devastating). putting this book down was an impossible feat.

i will say though that the first 60% of the book reads quite slow but the end makes up for it by a mile. also, helena and vonvalt's relationship still bothers me as it did in the first book.
