Pros: Highly active fast-moving plot, strong female leads
Cons: Too much exposition, it doesn’t quite hit the mark for the anti-capitalist allegory I think it wants to be

The magic system was fascinating and the story was interesting, but it felt like it was missing a lot of fleshing out and polishing.

Not what I thought it would be. Reads like a bad b-movie with a generic plot and characters. Very YA. Avoid if you’re not a fan of that genre / writing style.
