Well I enjoyed this book and the ending defo turned my opinion of Vireo! Jareb is dead but wtf happened to Lek why did he turn on his bro!
Why did Jared run off what did he see!
Am glad I know the books are origin stories and they come together so am hoping I find answers!!

So my other notes didn’t save! Grr annoying! So Vireo was knocking off Jarebs missus, who apparently was preggers went to escape& run off together didn’t go well, she’s dead at Vireos hand, Jareb (who I thought was half decent!) has now lost the plot hearing voices &is now taking advice from mysterious Megana who’s a seer…
Vireo, Lek &Gillam hiding in woods!

…lording it in his estate, that he’ll never ever leave it’s been in his family 4generations, except hes fucking the kings stewards (Jareb) wife (Allana) so erm tantamount to treason… apparently he’ll leave everything for her… 2 seconds after he said he’d never leave!! lol Jareb seems half decent cares 4the people but can’t go against the crown.
Lec &Gillam (female??) r Vireos sidekicks seem amusing

…lording it in his estate! He’s also fucking the kings stewards(Jareb) wife (Allana)so I’m suspecting that’s tantamount to treason! He won’t give up his manor for anyone… oh accept Allana apparently, literally within a sentence!! Jareb seems half decent atm cares for the people but has no power to go against the crown.
Lec (big ass dude) Gillam (I think is a woman?!) are Virelo sidekicks seem amusing!

Okay so I NEEDED a change of pace! Like seriously! So thought I’d try this, I’ve seen people give good reviews (well recommend as I don’t like reading reviews as there’s too many spoilers for me and I like going in blind!) I am not sure if Vireo is supposed to be the Robin Hood so to speak but if so he seriously needs to change! Cos at the moment he’s beating people for coin for the crown! …
