Right now I’m reading Fourth Wing and until now, I’m enjoying the book. I really love dragons and high fantasy, so it’s working.

But, I feel that some parts of the book are exactly the same in The Poppy War. The classes are similar and the matters of this classes are the same. Why they invade us? How we should defend? It’s just a point of view, because like i said, i’m enjoying the book!

Someone felt the same?

    I enjoyed Fourth Wing, i gave it about 2.5-3 of 5 stars. I had my issues, but it was a fun read.

    It isn’t exactly the most… ground breaking or original fiction. I noticed similarities between the story and The Poppy War as well. I also noticed similarities from The Cruel Prince. I think they may employ the same tropes, similar plot devices, etc.

    That said, and i can’t for the life of me remember the series name - i’ll edit once i get the name, there is an older fantasy book about dragon riders from sometime between the 1960s-1980s that seems like Fourth Wing was riffed off of, which is common nowadays!

    It’s gunna drive me nuts that I can’t remember what it’s called. Stay tuned while I drag the memory out of my head LOL
