adventurous dark mysterious sad tense fast-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? Character
• Strong character development? Yes
• Loveable characters? It's complicated
• Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

4.0

Veramente un bellissimo libro per il suo genere. 500 pagine che scorrono veramente come acqua. Molto psicologico, dark e crudo, sia negli argomenti che nella descrizione grafica. Veramente una lettura coinvolgente. Unica pecca è l'inverosimilità di alcuni combattimenti che sono un po' forzati ma per il resto è ottimo

I really enjoyed this book, as I always do when reading Kepler. The reveal of the villain is interesting and I did not expect that ending.
