This book turned out to be a huge disappointment for me. I think I saw what the author was trying to do, and while there are pages that accomplished the goal - the overall result didn't do it. I found myself wishing the story had continued in the vein of those few pages. The ending got utterly ridiculous and the epilogue felt like a forced opening to a sequel which I will gladly skip.
