took a little while to warm up, but when it did, I was all in. At 630 pages, it felt too short almost. There's a whole lot more story that feels like could be told and is waiting in the wings. Some great character stories with wonderful redemption arcs that ensure, despite how much more story there seems to be, that the ending closes in a satisfying way.
