Some thoughts on Piper at the Gates of Dusk

Just finished reading!

I was very happy to revisit this universe after many years, personally I'm not a big fan of continuing series with the kids of our main characters, but I enjoyed reading Ben and Max so much I can confidently say they are the right characters for this story.

I loved both Hewitt brothers, they are very fun to read, which is something that wasn't really happening with Todd's or Viola's pov lmao, not that it made the Chaos Walking trilogy any less enjoyable (those kids were going through so much it's no surprise there wasn't much space for comedy), but I do have to admit Max was my favorite. I loved Ben, I loved how sure he was of himself and his intelligence even if there were some insecurities deep down, but Max had a very authentic and very rebellious nature to his character that made me care deeply not only about what happens to him in the future but about how he feels and what the cruel new world does to his heart. I really hope he gets to live happily once the story is over.

I guess one thing I didn't like that much was how stubbornly Todd would insist that he was capable of protecting his family when in reality he couldn't. I just felt like he was portrayed quite powerless, I mean, everyone was powerless in a story where they have to fight gods, but Todd underestimated the dangers on new world so much it made me angry. I would expect him to be... smarter? He was wise in his words as I would expect from adult Todd, but some of the dangers they had to face could have been avoided if Todd had acknowledged he's only a man at the face of gods, men (and women) and the creatures of new world.

Both him and Viola were a bit immature in a sense, which I guess this tells us that even in adult age people can still be a bit dumb sometimes, even those who have been through so much and learned a lot, they still have stuff to learn.

Tiola PLEASE stop fighting you two know better than to split up over some argument that even though it's important it is no reason to leave someone you love so deeply 😤 so dumb.

Can't wait to read the next one! Read Piper at the Gates of Dusk it's definitely worth it!

I'm sorry, I sign, I didn't mean your truth. But you saw how people reacted when you told them the truth. He relaxes, but only just a little bit. "Yeah," he says. "Yeah, I did. But what you're forgetting is if you hide the truth because people are weak and afraid, how are they ever going to get strong and brave?"

in case you forgot that Patrick Ness is THE writer of all time, thank you very much

Ben & Max

In CW4, it’s mentioned that Ben is a city kid who went to a upper school—tall and very neatly dressed. So I designed him in a clean school uniform. And since CW4 takes place over twenty years after the trilogy, I figured their clothing and technology would have evolved as well.

He has a typewriter, a blue-glowing screen, and a sound-producing device, so I gave him this very cyber-tech mechanical setup. He can lean on the typewriter to input commands or even move it around to change their position. The screen is detachable too—he can take it off and use it like a tablet.

For the typewriter design, I referenced a one-handed keyboard. I originally wanted to make it more like a stenotype machine, but it doesn’t seem like his keyboard works that way.

Ben can’t speak, but it seems like he can convert what he types into electronic speech, so I added this device around his neck.

For Max, he’s described as short, round, and pretty carefree. He’s more of a countryside kid, so I designed his outfit to be practical, easy to work in, and comfortably casual.

I gave him a bomber jacket because I feel like he’d think that kind of thing looks really cool. Plus, my CW4 Todd design wears a similar jacket, so Max might be trying to imitate Todd’s style.

There’s also a patch on the front of his jacket featuring the New World and the two moons—the classic symbol from the CW3 cover.
