>>	Anonymous Tue Aug 16 09:41:39 2022 No.20846343 >>20846199 Why does it get weird with each book, I read the first two and the second book was way weirder than the first, makes me scared of reading the third and fourth.

>>	Anonymous Tue Aug 16 09:43:43 2022 No.20846350 >>20846343 I was kind of upset how the first one just... ends. Like I know there's not much more after that but it just ends with him being mean to a pretty princess :(

>>	Anonymous Tue Aug 16 09:45:01 2022 No.20846353 >>20846343 The second book explains the corruption and decadance of the new theocratic empire that he created.

>>	Anonymous Tue Aug 16 09:45:35 2022 No.20846354 >>20846350 Same, I hated the ending of the first but the second ending was very satisfying, made reading the second book worth it.

>>	Anonymous Tue Aug 16 09:48:37 2022 No.20846362 >>20846353 Yeah, it was foreshadowed in the first book, with the whole jihad visions.

>>	Anonymous Tue Aug 16 10:07:45 2022 No.20846411 >>20846161 It's about an engineered messiah in a universe where messiahs aren't real
