3.0

This started out as a could-not-put-down sort of read and then, about 200 or so pages in, got bogged down because everyone is incessantly having to EXPLAIN themselves. One can't help but wish that these people would leave some of their motives to be inferred rather than unburdened in such length. I finished it, but I cannot say that I wished for more. Less exposition and more story, I think, are in order.
