Heartbreaking, infuriating, upsetting, inspiring, and mind-blowing. The gravitational pull into this universe was pointless to fight against. Darrow immediately made me fall in love with him. I followed him, cried with him and cheered him on. I will be thinking about this book for a long time. Stunning writing, superb narration. Pierce Brown has a new fan.
