The pacing was a bit odd to me though. It felt like the big climax was halfway through the book, then the smaller climax came later, which is the opposite of most stories.
But the story was interesting for sure. I really liked the world-building, with the technology, and the politics and personal relationships. I could've done with a few less characters (it was hard to keep track of everyone).
I also liked the social commentary throughout, and the explorations of "upper class" Wiley City and "lower class" Ashtown.
