Just going throught the trilogy - it's good! It's also free to download - go read it!

Content warning: the second book is 90s edgy to a degree uncommon today. Of the two major themes of the book, one is sexual assault.

Which, to be clear, is unambiguously bad both in the book and reality.

Sure, but the average person, on seeing just a "it's good!" review, might be surprised by the hundreds of pages describing the viewpoint character being raped.

Being OC I agree - I was personally shocked and had not read it before writing this "review"
It feels gratuitous and shocking, readers beware
