Ok I've digested this book finally and can write a bit about it. I loved this book until 2/3 of the way through when things get weird and confusing. Initially the mystery of how

Mori's clairvoyance

works was fun to try and figure out, but at the end

everyone but Thaniel, who was manipulated by both Mori and Grace, turned out to be a real piece of shit. The characters stopped being likeable.

I wanted this to be a 4-star review, but I just couldn't rationalize it. Not sure I'd recommend this one.
