it was a very fast paced set up book. i enjoyed the world building a lot, however i found the two twists at the end unsatisfying. the first was predictable and the second was unnecessary.

This series is something I keep thinking about. It is so great conceptually and where it falls short, it picks itself up through wonderful characters and an interesting world. Just the idea of an afterlife of war where you can die and people are constantly fighting to take back their peace is so incredibly interesting and moving. I love it
