I read this in most of a day, so the lower rating doesn't reflect readability. I was hoping for more worldbuilding/explanation of whether these folks were actually gods or if they were just a high tech/futuristic society. There's mention of going to Berkeley to study for a PhD but then also there's some kind of magical barriers between the city and the rest of the world? I don't know. I'll probably give the rest of the series a try but it wasn't what I was hoping for. Also a word of warning, it's pretty spicy if that's not your thing. (Or, if it is your thing. 😂)
