Not bad

Bewertung am 26.09.2025

Bewertungsnummer: 2607970

Bewertet: Buch (Gebundene Ausgabe)

For me, Katabasis was the least good of all the R. F. Kuang's books. But it was still enjoyable most of the time. The setting was interesting and the characters were mostly likable.

First, you think you’re too dumb for this book. But then you’ll keep on reading and you’ll discover that indeed you are too dumb for this book. I had trouble connecting with the story and the characters. I also wasn’t able to envision this Hell she describes and I still don’t understand how the pentagrams work. But when I was quite sure that this book is not doing it for me, she hit me with a complex analysis of power structures, manipulation and exploitation and I remembered, why I faithfully vowed to preorder every single book this woman ever writes. Unfortunately it wasn’t enough to keep me intrigued for over 500 pages. I felt like the romance was lacking conviction and the main character, Alice, was not elaborate enough to keep the story running on her own. Maybe you need to be a scholar to enjoy this book. Maybe you need to have read Dante’s Inferno to enjoy this book. Neither of these things apply to me. So maybe I’m just not the target audience. Is this a bad book? No. I just missed the fun/excitement I usually experience while reading fantasy.

For the Babel Fans

Bewertet: eBook (ePUB 3)

Katabasis by R.F. Kuang promises Dark Academia elements, a trip to hell and mostly unlikeable characters (which is one of many things I love about Kuang's books) - and we get all that! I think this novel is for the Babel Lovers, the Dark Academia Readers who love social commentary and critique. Also the commentary on power dynamics and exploitation in academia was very fascinating. I really liked the philosophical approach and the complex layers that this story provides. If you are looking for a fast paced, actionpacked fantasy novel this might not be the one for you. But if you enjoy slow, intricate storytelling, layered characters and an excursion in deeper waters then this one is most definitely for you. The only thing that I would have liked more of was a more detailed description of hell, because it was so interesting and fascinating to me.

"Hell is a campus."

Bewertet: Buch (Taschenbuch)

R. F. Kuang shows her talent for writing academia and demonstrates her knowledge about mythology once again. I really loved Babel and Yellowface, so this was a very nice addition to her previous books in terms of style and philosophical/literary themes, mixed together with a nice and subtle love-subplot. The mental strain and the workload of academia were heavily referenced, which evoked great sense of empathazing with the characters. The only problem I have with this book were the few passages that kept dragging a bit, mainly because of the complex concepts that were referenced. But it was overall still a very fun reading experience and felt so interesting to dive into the complex but compelling magical system.
