This was such an interesting read, I didn't love it until the absolute end, last 20 pages or so. So much was left up in the air, and I both love and hate unansweredness. Just the tiniest bit of context would've satisfied me. The style was one I do not often pick up, I got so distracted with wondering about the "world" they are in. Maybe I'll reread.
