It’s alright. I expected something more gripping from a series I’d heard so much about. I can see why this book was progressive and groundbreaking a decade ago. But in 2024 it needs a better reason to read it. I don’t love the “I’m going to keep you confused about the world instead of creating narrative suspense in the plot” which is why my rating docs points. The Tixcalaan doulogy simply feels like a better version of what this book is.
