Kay always writes wonderfully, and while this does not reach the highs of A Brightness, it is not much inferior

This is a beautifully written book.
It simply was not for me.
This is described as a stand-alone book but I felt lost and have since learned that although this is a “stand-alone” it’s somehow also the last book in a trilogy?
Maybe I would have enjoyed it better had I read the other two. But on its own I didn’t enjoy it.
It simply was not for me.

Too many side stories, lazy writing, overexplaining, too slow
