What was the context of that book that had Himmler and MLK on the cover together?

Beats me. This was supposed to be cool ice age fantasy about a glacier melting and this causing a war between two people that were cut off.

Then that faggot author had to keep inserting cuckoldry and not actually answering any questions.

at some point he killed my favorite character for literally no reason other than "lol fuck you no happy endings", then all the sudden there were these heavy infantry bitches who were of course stronger than all the men, and he had this one cunt kill some other chick and it was terribly tragic but everyone loved the cunt for some reason so they didn't tell her the truth because it would hurt her feelings (even though the cunt was entirely at fault and deserved the anguish), and then finally there was this brutal gang-rape torture scene of some dude's wife and I looked up from the book and said out loud "why the fuck am i reading this shit?" And then put it down and went to bed. i guess grimdark fantasy just ain't it for me. all the good-will of the first few books was spent by all the tragic horrible shit that kept happening.

Truly Game of Thrones has ruined literature.

bro, it was so fucking infuriating. the character's entire arc was finished, his story was done, and there was already a perfectly good way for him to make his exit from the story and ride off into the sunset. and then the author literally has a mother-fucker, no joke, magically teleport behind him and stab him in the back. for no fucking reason at all. i was so fucking pissed i'm still fucking chapped by that shit like a decade later whenever i think about it.

That's actually similar to why I dropped the book in OP.

For the first book the main character is tormented by his bitchy ex wife who publicly humiliated him via cheating on him, and takes every chance to rub his face in it. He's extremely bitter and hurt and refuses to trust women again after that.

Until he meets a love interest. She slowly convinces him to let her in. And they're happy. Then come the second book and the bitch randomly cheats out of nowhere, and the book's moral about that dumb sub plot is "shit happens". Like fuck you, book, I read to escape random bullshit misfortune.

Why are burgers like this? The book is going well and out of nowhere they shoehorn cuckoldry

It’s a French and Russian convention
