The lore and the story of this book is really good…. But it is so long and dense. I would say only about 2/3 of it had actual plot development, and there were maybe only 3 total scenes out of this 1000+ where I was truly captivated. Again, really cool plot but I think I would have liked it more if it were broken up and arranged differently. Also,
holy shit, so much incest.
