I was so confused as to what was happening for like 75% of this book. I suspected, but I was still confuzzled. I didn't laugh out loud as much as I did in Gideon, but I did very much enjoy following Harrowhark's journey. The second person perspective was fascinating, I've very rarely encountered it previously. And then the last 25% happened and WHAM BAM THANK YOU MA'AM so good. I cannot reveal more without spoilers, but everything is wrapped up for the most part, except for one major mystery that I assume will be the lead-in to the next book. Also, the narrator continues to be a superstar in the audio version, and I will certainly listen to Alecto on audio.
