4.0

The plot starts out a little slow and it took me about a quarter of the way through to gain an understanding of the world building. However, the pace picks up pretty quickly closer to the halfway point of the book. I found it also takes some time to get to know the main characters and start caring about them but I think the author does a great job of building the suspense and shares easter eggs about the plot and characters throughout.
