Really interesting concept that unfolds tantalisingly. 
Characters were few, but the story revolved around them in such an interesting way, and the setting was absolutely gorgeous.
Reminded me of Johnathan Strange and Mr Norrell (but in a very different way); a good read for those interested in modern mythology, magical psychology, and ambiguous, open endings and interpretations
