The characters had very little redeeming qualities and that made it difficult to root for Insu, let alone his South Park-esque (in that they were rude and crude and otherwise awful people) friends. I also understand the use of slurs made it realistic and may have been appropriate for some characters but it felt inappropriate for the reader to be reading said slurs.
The transitions between Insu's POV and Big Uncle's POV were clunky and multiple times I forgot who I was reading until another character was mentioned.
