Good novel, interesting story, but this felt like it relied heavily on you caring heavily for the characters, which I just wasn’t. Without that caring, it just felt like an exploration of what it means to be a leader, and the viewpoints it expressed were intellectually interesting, but not personally engaging or satisfying.
