– New Epics revealed with fun powers that integrate smoothly with the action sequences – Expands upon existing character arcs but lacks focus on the “real” key players to the story as it relates to the world/magic systems the big reveal just didn’t work for me

– The once endearing metaphors/similes of David Charleston feels burdensome to read especially during fight-or-flight situations – Continued excellence in an immersive setting this time taking place in Ildithia (post-mortem Atlanta) Should this book be picked up? the tl dr review: (re: Goodreads Calamity by Brandon Sanderson) And David is just about crazy enough to face down the most powerful High Epic of all to get his friend back. Redemption is possible for Epics-Megan proved it. He’s disappeared into those murky shadows of menace Epics are infamous for the world over, and everyone knows there’s no turning back…īut everyone is wrong. But facing Obliteration in Babilar was too much. And now Regalia has turned his closest ally into a dangerous enemy.ĭavid knew Prof’s secret, and kept it even when the Reckoners’ leader struggled to control the effects of his Epic powers. David’s fate has been tied to their villainy ever since that historic night. When Calamity lit up the sky, the Epics were born.
