Wow guess I’m the outlier? I couldn’t put 3BP down, and then I got to the Dark Forest and loved it even more.
Deaths End fell apart terribly though.
It’s not that I liked how he wrote, I’m not sure if it was the translation that caused this, but he did not seem like a good writer at all. But I was very intrigued by his plot and ideas.
I finished it, and it just got progressively more and more scrambled. I guess is was diagnosed with cancer when writing it, and tried to cram as many of his ideas into this one novel as he could. And then it turned out it was a misdiagnosis or something? I can’t remember exactly but. Yeah, definitely not the best work lol
Yeah, I certainly wouldn’t recommend to everyone as being just an absolutely fantastic book. I liked it a lot, but could definitely see why some would not. I have really enjoyed what’s out of the new Netflix series for the show though, I’m probably more likely to just recommend that to people. It actually feels like thought was out into the characters now! Haha

That’s how I felt too. I was excited for deaths end, but I put it down about half way through and never got back to it.

Well now I feel bad for hating it!
That was me for the first book, and then I hoped the TV show would get me back into it but I quit that halfway through as well.
