The Guns of Empire by Django Wexler
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This war-centered Fantasy continues to deliver with the war-flavor. If you've gotten this far in the story, you're really here for the gritty ambiance, the female-led gun-heroes, and a little bit of romance to go with the rare appearances of demon-infused carriers of the Names.

Honestly? I loved the end. I loved a little of the romance. The battles, when they happened, were fascinating.

But the rest--it was kinda a glide. I was there for a bunch of normal stuff written in a normal way. Every day life between battles. I'm sure others will get more out of that than me. I admit to being a bit bored during these much-longer sequences.

But overall, it was still solid--so no harm or foul.


My synesthesia really smelled a lot of airborne ash throughout the read.


Personal note:
If anyone reading my reviews might be interested in reading my own SF, I'm going to be open to requests. Just direct message me in goodreads or email me on my site. I'd love to get some eyes on my novels.
