dark tense medium-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? Yes
• Loveable characters? It's complicated
• Diverse cast of characters? Yes
• Flaws of characters a main focus? No

2.25

Zupełnie czegoś innego spodziewałam się po tej książce. 85% to opisy brutalnego ludobójstwa i wojny, które do niczego nie prowadzą. Niestety parę tych rozdziałów, które bardziej skupiały się na życiu głównego bohatera nie były na tyle dobre, żeby książkę uratować. A szkoda, bo koncept generalnie nie był zły.
