The Steel Remains

This book took me forever to finish. If you want to read this for the gay/m-m content; don't bother. 2 manly sex scenes, not even a page (that i remember) that were not erotic in the least. The word "faggot" was thrown around a lot, mainly to irritate or insult. This read can give you nose-bleeds. The few and far between fight scenes were pretty energizing and then you would drop back down to sedated chatting. Morgan's book/writing reminds me of Abercrombie, but with less action. There was no sense of urgency, no race against time that usually pulls you along in better fantasies. I have the second book, so we'll see how it goes. A lot of things and people were left blowing in the wind.
