that's purely down to me not completely vibing with this story while reading, though, especially since i've wanted to read it since it was published six years ago and thus i was perhaps overly hyped to read it. there's really nothing i think should actually be changed about it. ...honestly, the more i think about it after finishing, the higher i want to rate it.
as for an actual elevator pitch review: neil gaiman should be jealous that scott hawkins wrote the best mildly grimdark gaiman-esque book possible
