I recently got into the ilClan era, and it seems like a lot of people dislike Clan Wolf.

I am a beginner from South Korea. My knowledge of BattleTech stopped at the Clan Invasion and Operation Bulldog, but I recently read Trial of Birthright and enjoyed it so much that I've been having a great time reading most of the ilClan era novels released up until last year.

However, I just finished Hour of the Wolf, and it was so boring that I really struggled through it.

If I had started with that one, I definitely would have had a hard time getting into the ilClan era.

I'm actually quite positive about the Third Star League. Personally, starting from Trial of Birthright, I believe Alaric Ward is going to face genuine crises and hardships, and I think failure is the best starting point for a good character, so I'm really looking forward to this era.

During the previous Dark Age era, did the stories always unfold like Hour of the Wolf? If so, I guess I'll just stick to reading the newer releases.
