Into Battle: Or, To Be Continued...

The 5th book is the The Seventh Tower series is just a set-up novel that furthers the plot. Nothing more, nothing less.

Tal continues his journey in the Aenir with Adras while Milla continues her journey in the Castle with Odris. They are both gearing up for the big battle and continuing on the story. Just lots of plot, plot, plot, not a lot of thought, thought, thought. Everything moves too fast to stop in think what is actually going on.

The world is so confusing and convoluted. I have no idea how anything works, what anything looks like, or what the rules of this world are and I think that is why I am having trouble investing in this story and this journey. Maybe the final book will explain it all (doubt it!).

P.S. Sushin giving me Sushi feels.

P.S.S. Adras and Odris, best characters hands-down.
