This was my best read of the year. Maybe of the decade. This book reads like an epic. A sprawling cast and storyline leading up to a great battle, both literally and metaphorically. I love an author who knots the storyline up so much I can’t imagine how they’ll get themselves out of it. And then they do it. Hill also has the begrudgingly amazing quality of a writer who I’d probably challenge in a philosophical or political debate. And yet their storylines are so compelling I can’t deny their talent. All I can say is holy shit. What a good book.

The last hundred or so pages were a drag. Felt like two books smushed into one.Â
