Traitor's Blade

Started out quite fun but devolved into a list of reasons never to read fantasy again. I basically only finished it because I have a reading challenge going and didn't want to add another DNF.

This is us. We're in a plot.
An enemy appears.
Enemy is described as clearly invincible.
But wait! Here's something you didn't know about us.
We use this brand new information to defeat the enemy.
Wisecracking, we continue on our quest.
A new enemy appears!
Here's a sudden plot twist that wasn't clear from just about the very beginning of the book.
Etc.

It's insultingly childish, a kid's fantasy of ‘you can't hurt me because of this new thing that I just made up', made ‘edgy' and ‘grown-up' with some cut-off fingers and torture porn. Gah.

The second star is purely because of the passable dialogue.
