challenging dark slow-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? It's complicated
• Loveable characters? It's complicated
• Diverse cast of characters? Yes
• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

3.0

For me, this was a downgrade from book one. I was more confused, cared less about the POV characters, and the world was just so grim that it became monotonous. Especially with Duiker's POV, who I really couldn't care less about. 

But it didhad some good moments here and there. I simply hope book three is a return to form.
