Avertissement sur le contenu Overall plot arc metaspoilers
This was basically two books: part one was gay, postapocalyptic lord of the rings; and part two was a straightforward commies vs. fascists war epic.
There are lots of trans characters and themes (including some gritty transphobia 😬), and plenty of leftist political discussion and commentary.
The military parts were a bit too "oorah" for my taste, but overall I really enjoyed the book.

The Belgariad
2 étoiles
So. The Belgariad is a pretty no-frills fantasy chosen one epic that spans five books. It has some unique aspects, like the world and religion/magic systems, but it's severely flawed, particularly in its depiction of women.
Women in the Belgariad have three types of interactions with men: - Nagging them into getting their way - Seducing them into getting their way - Being patronized
Incidentally, I'll be pretty happy if I never see a woman's appearance described as "lush" or "overripe" again.
