Amazing book, a bit of a slog at times due to such heavy politics but otherwise well well worth and leaves a lot of drive to read book 2

Initially had a hard time getting into the book. There were too many characters as well as the world building etc to keep track of. Once I got a handle on it all, I began to enjoy it more.

Jade City fills the void that Chloe Gong left behind when she ripped my heart out with These Violent Delights. If anything happens to Hilo and Shae, Fonda Lee, you will be hearing from my lawyer.

Also I'm terrified of Anden
