The next big thing! If you need to fill the void left by the ending of Game of Thrones, this is for you! Blah! Blah! Blah!
It's sort of a russian tinged fantasy epic. And I'm probably going to get a bunch of things wrong because there is so much stuff. There's a country riven in two by a misty black are where sunlight can't penetrate and monsters live in there. You can' go around the void because of an antagonistic nation on one end and mountains on the other. The army needs to go through the void but it's an impossible task ending in certain death to go through the void.
There is some sort of war going on. There are regular soldiers and there are the magic using soldiers. The two types of soldiers don't like each other very much. And then there are the two lovers who aren't yet lovers in the center. The boy is a scout and the girl is a cartographer. They are orphans who met at the orphanage. She's a half-breed but I never saw how she looked any different from the other kids. The other kids beat up on her anyway.
The army is on one side of the void. There is a lawless town on the other side. A gang of crooks are putting together to go on a job back through the void that could earn them a million Kruna. There's fighting with another gang to get the million dollar job. It's all very sketchy and every time I see these scenes I feel like I've missed some important bits of information. Maybe it would help if i read the books upon which the series is based.
Anyway, turns out the girl orphan actually has a very rare power that the rest of the world is going to want especially the group of criminals on the other side of the void.
I'm two episodes in. It's got some good visuals but the story isn't grabbing me. I might have one more episode in me.

As a matter of fact, my anger does keep me warm
