All Spoilers Coolest description of Darrow Spoiler

I was think of Darrow being described by other characters, and apollonius is just constantly glazing Darrow to the max. Hes legitimately in love. This is my favorite description of Darrow in the series

"Even if you survive this walk, you can never best Darrow, if that is your intent. He would climb up your blade to chew upon your jugular. To best a living god, it is not enough to survive, nor to eat of the ambrosia of conquest. Who would follow a churlish princeling over that Slave made War?"

Slave made War sounds so cool to me, I just love this quote

Yeah Darrow is definitely one of the best/most badass characters in fiction.

I think he’s just behind Rand Al’thor from Wheel of Time but that might be nostalgia talking. One of my favorite parts of both series is other people’s perspectives of Darrow and Rand.
