 This book was supposed to be a trilogy but instead got smooched together into one book with three parts, and you can tell. There is a breakneck pace and barely any space for character moments. Which is something that’s very important to me as a reader. The idea and setting are completely out of the box for me and that did keep me quite engaged at the beginning, but as the story continued moving along too fast I felt like I was being forcibly dragged along.
It didn’t help that I didn’t vibe with the main character at all too, I’m not fond of “brash man angry at everything, that’s better at fighting than everyone else so he doesn’t listen”.

So while I found the setting interesting the lack of character focus made me not enjoy this book.
