One of the best words I can think of to describe this book is cinematic. The whole time I was reading it, I was thinking of what an amazing movie it'd make. As a writer myself, I have to talk about the craft that goes into this book. Clark does an amazing job of building characters and a world in such a small page count. It's really exciting! I fell for the characters here hard, and my only complaint (that is in fact a compliment) was that I want to spend more time with these characters and in this world.
