Overall, I LOVED this book! There were so many morally ambiguous (and straight up bad) characters, plenty of commentary on elite society and urban Indian development, and lots of action.
There are 3 main POVS with an additional 2 mini-POVs towards the end - each has their own unique voice. I enjoyed the world and character building in the beginning but think the ending felt rushed and disjointed.
This is a cliffhanger book with 2 more planned AND a TV series on FX
