Listen. This book is a political masterpiece. I loved every second of it. I only marked it down because there were a lot of terms that were made for this book and not real words that never received a definition. I had to pull apart from context what they are and for some of them it took a while. 

I loved the main characters and anguished when they anguished, rejoiced when they rejoiced. The ending was exactly what I expected and I loved every second of it. I felt so much reading this book. It is worth every page of the 900 pages.
