An interesting mix of magic and scifi elements within this story give it an interesting flair.
I would have liked to get to know Viola and her why a bit more right off the bat. It would have hooked me into the story better. I found my self asking why do I care? A few times during the first half of the book.
Much of the identity of both main characters is revealed very slowly. It kept me reading but also kept me from being fully invested. I am still glad I finished and am looking forward to seeing what happens in the next book.
