1.0

Characters- Plenty of descriptions and dialog as well as emotions from characters
Setting- A ton of setting with history and alternate history throughout
Plot- Nary a sign of it in the first 15% of the book.

There is absolutely no plot. Everyone talks to someone else about what is happening but not a single person does anything. The people that are doing something are talked about by the people doing nothing. She is spying for us. Wonder how that is going? Well, you won't find it here, because we would rather have the non movement characters talk about someone else actions. This is a yawn fest from beginning to seven chapters in. The concept was what drew me in, but the book is just retched. Basically this is a war-gamer's fantasy about changing history without having characters do a single flipping thing.
