Perfectly balanced story, as all novels should be
A compelling and insightful look into the origins of Thanos, with some great monologues and soundbites along the way. Although not considered canon in the MCU, this book might as well be as it answers many of the questions concerning Thanos' philosophy and how his Byronic character developed from a mutant child to the Mad Titan we know.His story somewhat mirrors Tony Stark, and we see just how 'cursed with knowledge' he is. The way the book fuses his 'saviour' complex with balancing the universe is brilliant, and his speeches on climate change and environmental disasters could also be interpreted as being analogous to our own civilization.The book matches the tone of the movies, and is filled with callbacks which I think would hit with casual fans. But if you're a hardcore fan and wanted to see more Thanos screentime, I think this can fill some of those gaps. Took me 8 months before I opened the book but then I couldn't put it down and read it in a day.

Not a children's book
I bought this for my son thinking it would be about the same reading kevel as David Williams given the content. The book arrived in mint condition but it is very in depth and difficult to understand. It could do with a age recommendation

It may not be canon but it sets up the MCU’s Avengers well! I flew through this book and would definitely recommend to anyone!

It's hard to put this book down
Such a gripping book. Depth is added to Thanos as a character. As you journey through his quest you begin to relate to Thanos. You start to understand his motives how uniquely he sees the world. Highly recommend.

A must read for any fans of the MCU Thanos.
As someone who thinks Thanos was the protagonist in Avengers: Infinity War, Titan Consumed was a great read on the history of the Titan. Although it is not canon in the MCU it is an interesting look at how a young, pacifistic, Thanos becomes the individual we eventually see in Infinity War.Starting in his youth on Titan, we go on a journey with Thanos, as he feels like an outcast by his own people and eventually exiled for his solution to save his people, even though they both hate and fear him. Seeing him grow more confident in his beliefs, amassing more power as he seeks to save other planets from his homeworld’s fate is exactly what you’d expect from Thanos’ past.And then the inevitability of him learning of the Infinity Stones and finally setting into motion the events what would cause him to collide with the Avengers.If you’re an MCU fan then you’d like this book, especially if you think Thanos is a great character and want to know more about his history.
