This was great. Even knowing what happens as I’d seen the film it’s still a thrill-ride of a read.

I did not think this would be a five-star read, but it so is. There is not a singular moment where I felt like the plot had grown slow or boring. The pacing was perfect, and the characters were fleshed out to a satisfactory level, especially Lomeli and Benitez. The story is believable, yet still thrilling. After every chapter, I told myself "Ah I know who's going to win the conclave now", but I was proven wrong time and time again until the very end. The ending is unique and done in such a subtle way without feeling forced. The little detail in the chapters before, where Lomeli notices Bentiez did not open his razor - I knew it would come in handy eventually. I have a lot more to say, but it would take me ages to type it out. Such a great book - gonna watch the film now.
