Pretty good. This engaged the reader in the story of the Fourth Branch well and built up suspense and mystery effectively. However, the ending was extremely disappointing and scientifically inaccurate and didn't resolve the mysteries in a satisfying way at all. Enjoyable easy read. I really liked the stuff about the stories reflecting the history of the people but I didn't actually understand a lot of it... which I don't think was my fault.

Gave up on this at page 134. A little too much casual mentioning of rape for my liking. This isn't the kind of writing style I like either. An interesting premise but it just felt pointless and distant as I read on. Basically, it just wasn't very good. Sad times.
