The book is really good, except the pacing is a bit off and it kinda messed it up for me personally. The beginning is great, and then the middle starts to drag, before the ending speeds by (while taking a while to finish). Theres a lot of world expansion and new characters that work in some places (Abe, Belikovs, Oksana and Mark) and don't work in others (The Unpromised). Excited for reading fresh books and finishing it.
