Shadows Upon Time (The Sun Eater, #7)
Christopher Ruocchio
This is gonna be a long one folks.
I think the reason behind the way I feel about Books 6 and 7 is due to fatigue. I've been reading the Suneater series non-stop since March of this year. I can sense an impatience with wanting to finish so I can start something else. This is not to say that the Books are bad by any means. Ruocchio crafted a magnificent epic. Reading it in one go, however, brought me to this point.
I've never been a fan of binging. Blame it on the fact that I'm from the TV generation. I love the week to week wait. Time to absorb what I'd watched. Let it simmer. Binge-culture and me never really mixed. So, I learned my lesson. Moving forward, if a book series is as long as this one, I'll have to take a break somewhere in between and then return to it.


Recently I commented in the Anna Karenina forum that it could also be called Scandal & Scythes (also yes, this book is half of my personality shhh).
I’m inspired now to ask others to give their current reads an alliterative (i.e. the first letters are the same) title like Pride & Prejudice!
