I really liked the environment that the Author painted, I think the book really shined in that area along with the back stories of all the characters. The book started kind of rough for me because of the maritime vocabulary but after some dictionary reads things got a bit better. The ending left me a unsatisfied , to be honest. I’m not sure why, I think it may have wrapped up a little too quick. I felt like there should’ve been more development involved. Pretty dissatisfying.
