5.0

An absolutely stunning book that explores grief, rage, and humanity's brutality. As prior reviews have noted it is graphic, but it never felt as though the graphic mature was unwarranted or didn't lend itself to the story and mythos James is creating. Incredibly excited to read the next one and see how He's expands this intricate, complex world.
