Rougher reviewed The Mercy of Gods by James S. A. Corey (The Captive's War #1)
Thrilling and dreadful
4 stars
Starts dark and goes darker. Only shows a glimpse of sunlight toward the end. A very thrilling read that does an excellent job at mirroring the dreadful and slow moving time our human heroes endure. Their powerlessness is palpable and the books offers no respite until the smallest off a sliver on the last 20 pages. Loved it and look forward to the next iteration.
