Tristan: You mean to tell me you were messing around with the shadowman?

Lyla: He was very charismatic!

Just finished reading the darkverse series by Runyx (super late I KNOW!) (right on time for the syndicator, I KNOW!) and I just want to come out and say that I loveeeeee the series. There’s not a single character I hate, and there’s not a couple that’s boring, and can we talk about the female characters?? They’re all soo strong and their communication skills?? Oh my god.

I can sit and rant about how wonderful the series is but there won’t be enough time in the world for it. May only disappointment with the series is that it’s not longer and it’s about to end 💔

You are telling me The Shadowman raises a finger and The Predator halts like a dog? No Ma’am. Won’t happen. Not if we are being true to both the characters.

You are telling me that The Shadowman could draw out reaction after reaction from The Predator as if he were a petulant teenager? The same predator who went years without showing an ounce of reaction while living amongst strangers who were out for his blood?

Play favourites all you want but don’t write stuff that would undo established character arcs and expertise. @runyxwrites

Dante: You're smiling, did something good happen?

Tristan: Can't I just smile because I feel like it?

Morana: The shadowman tripped and fell outside.

Hey Designers,

This is my fanart collage from the Dark Verse series. Again, I did not make this art. Rather, I just collaged it.

[scarlet742]

WITHOUT spoiling- can anyone help me with the review of the syndicator ?

CAUSE I SAW SOME AND ALL OF THEM SAID THE SERIES GOT RUINED BY THE LAST BOOK !? Also- did morana loose her entire hand or smtg !? Like arms and all ?

Notable mention again- DO NOT SPOIL ME IVE YET TO READ IT ! (It’s just the reviews are making me not want to read it since it’s one of the fav series and I don’t want to ruin it if the things I’ve come across till now about it is true)

[aasssshhhhh]

dark verse by runyx

read the first three books in three days and i have exams up and coming from thursday (for which i’m not prepared at all) but shadowmanlyla !!

i haven’t read their book yet. i still have to read alphazephyr (!!) but from all the quotes i’ve seen and the spoilers i’ve read, ik they’re my no. 1 (danteamara being a close second) in the dark verse series. (i’m already a dainn blackthorne apologist through and through)

hopefully i start studying now fr which means i’ll need to put the series on hold which means i’ll need to talk to someone about it to keep me sane and in control enough to not continue reading it because university exams -_-

‼️SPOILER FOR THE SYNDICATOR‼️

This is just a rant because I’m so disappointed but here goes:

Just finished the last book of the series and I’m so disappointed actually. It feels like the author who wrote the first 5 books, especially Morana’s and Tristan’s is completely different from the one who wrote ‘The Syndicator’. I feel like it had unnecessary POVs, the whole syndicate started with Tristan, Morana, Dainn and Lyla, the four POVs would have been enough, with glimpses into the other characters (because their POVs were literally used to fill up the pages). I loved this series and I’m sad I read the last book, not because it’s over but because THIS is going to be my last memory of the world I’ve come to really enjoy.

People are annoyed over more of Lyla and Dainn chapters but I’m annoyed that everyone got more book time than Tristan and Morana (who literally started this off btw). Dainn did all the work with help from Morana and everyone was just existing on the side. Tristan was so out of character as well, I liked he was a bit less guarded after finding his sister, essentially implying his decade long search is over but that kind of wall doesn’t go up immediately, especially when the threat of the syndicate still loomed over them. He just went into the background. He also never noticed Morana’s pain when everyone noticed it, and we know how obsessed and in tune he’s been with her since they were fucking KIDS. How is this the same man who threatened her dad for calling her a whore?? And it’s funny because in the little time we see him in the books, he talks about how he’s so attuned to Morana’s body language but can’t notice her using her right side more or the pain? The lack of (there’s none btw) ‘I love you’ to Morana drove me crazy, especially when we see him say those words to Lyla, so you know he CAN say it, and we KNOW he’s himself the most around Morana. Everyone getting pregnant (Zephyr) was not my favorite bit either. Her dad being a part of the syndicate was so random and not explored, the fifth leader, the master and him being Dainn’s dad was also not explored and he suddenly died at the end too without a nice showdown was soo disappointing especially because throughout his POVs (yes, even he got more book time than Tristan motherfucking Caine) he’s talking about finally having a challenge and then boom, he’s dead. Boom, the book ends.

I have so many more thoughts but I’m just mainly pissed that Runyx did my favorite couple the DIRTIEST.
