I see anger in you, Princess,” Kesar said softly, hesitant. Tentative as a traveler walking across broken ice. The Heir flushed and scowled. They shifted, planting their body between Charlie and the sacred circle of bronze, as if it were a child to be protected. “I’ll not hear blasphemy.” Discuss how this is an example of the "ragtag group of misfits" story arc? Can you name other examples of motley crew's on a mission?

A true fantasy masterpiece."—Sabaa Tahir, #1 New York Times bestselling authorof An Ember in the Ashes series And even worse was an actual scene where a villain and a protagonist wrestle for mind control over a dragon. I am unfortunately not exaggerating when I say the lines completely and unironically read basically like this:

How many?” she said, her voice trailing off. Corayne didn’t expect Andry to understand the broken musings of her mind. I began this day on one battlefield, and now I stand on another entirely. She certainly felt like a soldier, fighting with wits and intelligence instead of a sword. A sword is far more simple.”

The hall echoed with triumph, but all Sorasa heard was the tolling of a death knell. Even as she smiled, dread curled in her belly. It was never far away, but now it reached for her with icy claws, its sting sinking too deep.”Daichi's Bit-Beast Strata Dragoon (Yellow dragon of earth, Strata Dragoon) is the Beyblade version of the occasional fifth sacred beast in the myths of the Four Sacred Beasts, represented by the original four members of the Bladebreakers. Not only is it bad enough that Blade Breaker throws in these types of bizarre, nonsensical metaphors that don’t even fit with each other, but on top of this, the novel adds further statements that read as incredibly melodramatic. Characters have no issue literally announcing “into the jaws of death we go” or that their companions “remained silent, bent but not broken, resolute before their doom.” Frankly, people do not talk in such a histrionic manner, especially when they’re in life-threatening situations! These types of expressions and declarations are way too over-the-top and make the novel feel more like a parody of the genre, because how could a serious novel ceaselessly state this kind of stuff? Near the end of the novel, I was wholly nonplussed by the villain’s speech, as he went from ranting about how awful humanity is to complimenting the heroine —all in one little tirade: Clearly.” The Lady of Kovalinn still stood the walls, staring out into the long craggy jaws of the fjord, toward the Glorysea. “She seems to be made of stone.”

The only other relationship I enjoyed in Blade Breaker is the reluctant camaraderie between Sorasa and Dom, which might actually be progressing into something more. These two, who have previously had a contentious relationship, have come to terms with the fact that they trust and rely on each other to accomplish their goals. As more comes to light about Sorasa’s past, I was more interested in Dom’s reaction to it than what the novel told readers about her actual past itself. The two relationships between Eridan and Taristan and Dom and Sorasa show the most complexity and nuance this series has to offer. You cannot fathom the realms I’ve seen, the endless ages, the limitless bounds of greed and fear. You cannot know how wrong you are. I almost pity you.’ The voice rippled over her, making her skin crawl. ‘And while I hate your heart, I admire it too.'” Her fingers curled until she felt her own nails dig into her palms. Part of her wanted to claw Orleon’s red face right of and give him a mask to wear all the time, as she had to.” Bridge to the Future · Chandora (India) · Dark Nebula · Dark Nebula Again · Dark Trident · Death Stream Scissors · Desert Blaze (Arabia) · Dungeon · Excalibur (Europe) · Face Hunters · GanGan Galaxy/ Gingka's gang (Japan) · Garcias (Brazil) · Hades Inc. · Lovushka (Russia) · Star Breaker (America) · Wang Hu Zhong (China) · Wild Fang (Africa) Characters drink at pubs, dinners, and receptions.
