Spoiler
they bashed babies heads inAlso I was told that the writing and overall story would improve from book one but over 100 pages in and wasn’t getting better it was getting worse.

I know now that this is grim dark series. I’ve read them before but this was the absolute worst I’ve ever read and it’s directed at young adults. Reviewers don’t mention the barbarism when they review the book and thus aren’t being honest with their audience. I wish I’d known. Waste of time and money although I sent mine back for a refund.
