holy crap, now that was a BOOK. so frquently i lose interest in the second half, because you're just running downhill towards the end you know is coming. the good guys win, love conquers all. with this book i had no clue what was going to happen next at any point. it wasn't like "shocking twist" it was just like a lot happening. no clue what was going to happen next right until the end. and, so much world building, so many characters to keep straight, but it didn't feel like "god this is a book with too many characters" it kind of felt like "wait who was that i want to remember them so i can figure out what is going on" like it was always right on the edge of too much. anyway. loved it. one of those books that makes me regret spending time with less perfect books.
