Definitely for people who like puzzles. The author throws you right into the thick of it. At first, nothing is explained, and it’s your job to piece together what’s going on. But don’t worry, most of the things will be explained at some point if you have the patience to read further. I personally kept a list of terms and major plot points mentioned by the character in my notes app, and updated it as I read along. If you like theorizing, this is definitely a book for you.

In terms of a plot, it’s a VERY exciting read.  I could not put the book down; read the whole thing in three days.
