Ackingly underwhelming, terrible pacing. The first half of the book was really hard to get through, but then, it became an addictive read, only to be let down by the post twist by the end.
As it aims to be the first book of a series, I think it does a good job at laying down the setting for a hopefully better sequel, because I do see a lot of potential for this series, I just don't want to be let down again.
