I feel like this could have been a more concise book and the ending could have been a little longer. Overall, it was good.

A few things that were not my favorite:
1. So much fat phobic language for Ravencort. It was lazy writing, there are better ways to write about this characters physically abilities.
2. Aiden took most things as truth for the first half of the book, happily accepting what various people said and being resolute in whatever the new truth was. Then in the later part, his theories became much more secretive to the reader. I understand why, but it was a bit shift and think there were more skillful ways to keep the reader in the dark.
3.
4. Would have liked to understood more about Daniel’s history, and the footman was just a rando killing for fun?
I liked the reveal of the Plague Doctor and that this was all a justice reformation system, and how much time they’d been there.
Interesting, ambitious, fun aside from being confused for a good part of it, and not quite as expertly executed as it could have been.
