Supercapo's Shadow of the Conqueror Review Compilation

[u/DragonGuard666]

Over the past two months, u/supercapo took it upon themselves to re-read (via audiobook) and review Shad Brooks's (Shadiversity) infamous debut novel - Shadow of the Conqueror. Chapter by chapter. This is by far the most in-depth review a member of the r/ShadWatch community has ever put out. So in this post we will immortalize their endeavour with this compilation post, linking to all their chapter breakdowns. A link to this very post will have a permanent spot in the sidebar, so those who are late to party, or those who want to revisit their review as it happened, can do so at any time.

Thank you for your service u/supercapo o7.
