Top tier world building, I wish I could visit Janloon. The political intrigue and warring of the clans was very exciting, lots of plot twists and unexpected turns that took the story further and had me at the edge of my seat. The Kaul family dynamics are so realistic, every character is so fleshed out and I can't help but root and feel for all of them. I love the dynamic between Shae and Wen in particular. I only wish there had been more action, merely because I love how well Fonda Lee writes her action scenes. Also, HOW does Bero just keep surviving???
