3.5

Interestingly paced, I found the first 3/4 quarters of the book relatively slow and mundane (which was fine), but there’s so much that happens in the last 1/4 that makes it feels unbalanced. The historical context really makes it an intriguing story and makes it clear the research that went into this book.
