very disappointed, shadow slave has an amazing start and the main character we are introduced to is a cunning, smart person that doesn't even hestitate to poisen seemingly "innocent" people for his safety, paired with good side characters and an interesting world it would seem like it's going to be great, right?wrong. Everything you've just read gets thrown away and wasted, the main character isn't cunning (you can be cunning without lying), smart or anything anymore. Character development is random and when it's announced to happen ("beach" episode) doesn't happen and overall Sunny disappoints in every aspect.you would think that he fights against the spell and avoid being a slave? nope, he becomes the slave of someone and that's it.. he's a slave, the novel lost its uniqueness at that point and I dropped it after trying to read further, spoiler; it doesn't get better.
