The Combat Codes by Alexander Darwin

4.0

This was a really solid debut novel, I had a great time reading this book. A dark and gritty underdog story that does not shy away from the gruesome training of a Grievar or the dismal Underground rings. The characters were really great to read; seeing how their relationships and dynamics changed throughout the course of the book, and how different events would catalyze those shifts. I’m really interested in seeing where this story goes in the next edition of the Combat Codes saga!
