Re-reading the Dark Templar Saga for the first time in a decade feels like the first sip of ice cold water after crawling through the fiery pits of Hell solely because I get to read about Valerian being an arrogant brat that gets increasingly frustrated as the series progresses because the goal of his ambition keeps escaping from him like the whole thing is an episode of Looney Tunes

#If this book series was devoit of it's terrible romance subplots this would be an A tier book #Seriously. Like. What the hell is that #And I love how Valerian is a diet version of his father #That being that he's just as ambitious as him and just as capable of all the shit Arcturus is and he recognises that #But he also has a drop of morality in his body and knows that aspiring to be a space dictator isn't good for his karma nor for his people #I love how Arcturus shows through Val in certain moments #And how the cracks in his facade grow more prominent the more angry and frustrated he gets #“Like father like son” only the gap is so incomprehensibly big because one is a space fascist-#-and the other is an arrogant kid who's a bit too obsessed with the vision of his grandeour #That's also willing to do terrible things to achieve his goals #But like #He has standards. Love that #Starcraft #Valerian Mengsk #Arcturus Mengsk
