However some of the characters come a bit short and the ending is quite abrupt, with some storylines hanging loose or seemingly just ultimately there to advance plot for Atl and Domingo.
Also their love story is very icky considering he's underage.

This book was fine. It wasn't for me. I really wanted to like it. The worldbuilding is what interested me the most.

This was just a drag from start to finish. It had so much potential, but the character development was either sudden and forced or non-existent, and the ending was horrible, especially since this is apparently a stand-alone.
I'm not saying Moreno-Garcia can't write. Her writing style is fine and I enjoyed the action scenes. The plot was just a drag, there was no development and it all ended in nothing.
