#bas lag does grimdark. DARKLY. #recently read #its like i said after i finished the first one like theres lit no grimdark that compares to this #only then i started reading the scar and i was like wow this isnt that bad it seems that he's pulling all his punches #but then u get to the end of the scar and its like oh no this one's just. far more subtle about the horror. #perdido is about a whole city undergoing horror & how everyone dissapoints even you (the reader) #scar is about a single person undergoing the horror & even when everyone uses her you're still roped into like #seeing things from her perspective AKA not seeing that theyre using her AND on top of that #youre sitting here thinking 'damn at least im glad this isnt happening to shekel or tanner' and its like. #yeah. i think ur kinda meant to feel that way. all the way up until the final betrayal. and then ur like. drained #sitting here head in hands thinking fuck. thinking... what if she went with the lover. #& if ur gay ur sitting here thinking ok but iron council is about uther please please pweaseeeee #(idk what iron council is about it could be tho but i dont think so)
