I could not bring myself to finish though I will try to do so soon and perhaps update my review to include the ending.

Ultimately, I strongly disliked the book. There is absolutely no way an editor even skimmed over the book because there are a ridiculous amount of errors. From punctuation, to spelling, to capitalization mistakes- the story is filled with them!

There is a lot of filler. Often scenes are filled with people eating (snacking, going to a restaurant, and so on) and every little detail is told to us. There are moments were every little thing is told about Breq or another character walking to and from somewhere and quite frankly it just isn't necessary. The balance between "showing" and "telling" was not met and it is very apparent in these filler scenes. The flow was very choppy and often inconsistent.

Twice in a single chapter, within paragraphs of each other, we see that Wolf is uncertain of a character named Gideon. Another prominent error and should have been caught not only by the writer but a content editor.

I felt that the character developments were lacking significantly and often inconsistent. As I neared the end the story just continued to drag when there were several spots it could have been wrapped up neatly. It was like, "But wait! There's more!" and the reader didn't need more. I personally did not want more.

All in all these mistakes made the story quite unenjoyable. I tried rooting for some of the characters but was stopped by the significant errors and dreaded reading. (Thus the reason I cannot bring myself to finish it!)

The good you might be wondering? The story does have potential. I believe if the author went back and corrected the story, expanded on this one and cut out some filler scenes it could be really good. As is, I'm incredibly surprised it managed to get published.
