Surprisingly nuanced female characters and a well described, intricate plot! However, I wanted to be in the mind of Dantes during his revenge journey and I was kept at a distance. I also thought the book was too long. I also didn’t like the surprise sexual assault in the story within a story chapter towards the beginning.
