• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? Yes
• Loveable characters? It's complicated
• Diverse cast of characters? Yes

3.0

I liked the development of the story, starting kind of in the middle of the action. The characters have known each other for years, their relationships are established, and we get to follow them to the final part of their journey. It was something different from what I usually read, and I enjoyed the change.
I liked the universe in general, even though some parts were difficult to get because we would get the name of a creature with not much explanation.
Some parts had me like "mmh now why would you do/say that?" but overall it was a good read!
