About this ebook

The Vagrant is his name. He has no other.

Years have passed since humanity’s destruction emerged from the Breach.

Friendless and alone he walks across a desolate, war-torn landscape.

As each day passes the world tumbles further into depravity, bent and twisted by the new order, corrupted by the Usurper, the enemy, and his infernal horde.

His purpose is to reach the Shining City, last bastion of the human race, and deliver the only weapon that may make a difference in the ongoing war.

As each day passes the world tumbles further into depravity, bent and twisted by the new order, corrupted by the ...

The story itself was interesting. But the writing style was too different for me. I was confused at several points in the story where he jumps to different characters in a sudden transition. It would take me a minute to realize who's perspective I'm reading from, and where they are in the story. I had a hard time visualizing what was happening in some parts as well. I'd have to go back and re-read some paragraphs here and there to grasp what just happened. If this series were to become a cartoon/anime I'd watch it. It would be cool to see how it all unfolds.

Read the first 100 pages and felt like it was such a chore to read. The plot is hard to follow and the author doesn't elaborate much on the demon infested world in a way that makes sense to readers. I had to stop reading because it was almost painful to continue. Absolutely baffled that this is a trilogy.

Overall I enjoyed it. Lots of fun characters and an interesting world. Already preordered the next one. Rated it a 4 instead of a 5 because of how the story seems to jump from idea to idea at points and it can be hard to follow exactly what has happened.
