Jake Bishop | The Poppy War by R.F Kuang spoiler free book review @jakebishop7822 | Uploaded March 2021 | Updated October 2024, 23 hours ago.
In general i'm not the biggest grimdark fan. But an interesting and well written protagonist, a fresh setting, and interesting ideas and theme's made this a really good read.
