I think I could have a 5 star in later books. The ending was satisfying but I am bummed the next book is obviously gonna be in a different place I had just gotten a handle on camorr lol. But this one took just a little too long to get me invested in the characters. Still a great bookk but not quite a 5.

It's a dark and violent stiry and doesn't recoil from that at all. It doesn't leave you reckoning with it really, just facing it and accepting it as part of the events.kassabitte's review against another edition

I do think the book could have had better representation of women, but my hopes are that this first book will set the foundation for better stories to come.

Criticisms aside, the story was full of twists and turns and more deaths that a season of Grey's Anatomy. The worldbuilding was full of description and even had its own calendar system. The characters were fantastically written, both good and bad characters. They brought me joy, anger, and heartbreak at times. Locke is an interesting character to me because as someone who is supposed to be the brains of the operation, he sure does make a whole bunch of mistakes and then continues acting like he is the cleverest being known to man.
I am unsure if I will continue the trilogy as this one felt like it could be a standalone, but we shall see.
