I'm halfway on the Audiobook but I might drop it. The times I've been hooked and interested has been few and sparse.

"A good conscience would stop most people from using trust as a weapon, but unfortunately, a good conscience is often betrayed by the needs of reality."

So deep. Understandable in times of war. Don't agree with it a 100% with it though.

Sproid reviewed The Final Empire by Brandon Sanderson (Mistborn, #1)
Good start with a weak beggining.
4 stars
The first quarter of the book is weak, boring, and I almost stopped reading. Is good that I didn't because the story, narration, and overall writing gets much better. What I like about the story is that it shows the flaws in the characters and the consequences making them more alive as opposed to too fictional because of obvious plot armor.

Long long light novel. It's not perfect but is one of my guilty pleasures. Mostly Sci-fi, some fantasy, isekai, and a great ending. Cons to tolerate or ignore is the mandatory Chinese lick booting nationalism that happens once in a while and some of the other cultural issues. The way I see it is that I'm reading a draft that needs to be edited to a new edition made for the western world. There's at least 2 other Chinese light_novels / web_novels that are great but are on "hiatus". In reality they are discontinued because they didn't pass the Chinese government filter so the authors cannot finish them.
