Review: The Ascendance Trilogy by Jennifer A. Nielsen

Granted, I’ve only read the first two books so far, but dang is the series good.

The MC is a character you can root for. He’s witty, a smartass, and you just feel really invested in the story. It’s simply fantastic. Just when you think that you know what’s going to happen, Nielsen knocks you off your feet with the plot.

My feelings are all over the place, and I desperately wish that the MC will get to be with his love ;-;

"...we were realists. We knew we weren't getting out. Dreaming led to disappointment, and disappointment to a kind of depressed funk that wasn't easy to shake. Better to stay in the gray than get eaten by the dark."
