i’m gunna need a minute. or like a thousand minutes.

update: it's been over a month and i still can't seem to find the right words to describe how special this duology is to me, how much i loved reading both a memory called empire and a desolation called peace, how i fear i'll never do these books justice. 

while it wasn't what i was expecting, a desolation called peace was simply superb: a unique, subtly violent, immersive adventure.
