Solid book. The beginning felt like Gwynne wasn’t quite sure where he wanted to go with it, but got better as the story unfolded.
The writing, however was definitely more developed from the second book, and I enjoyed and found it a little easier to read.
Overall pretty good.

Slow, repetitive descriptions, unnecessary scenes. Tedious. Not as good as the first book.
