challenging dark slow-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated

  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

3.0

For me, this was a downgrade from book one. I was more confused, cared less about the POV characters, and the world was just so grim that it became monotonous. Especially with Duiker's POV, who I really couldn't care less about. 

But it did have some good moments here and there. I simply hope book three is a return to form.
