I really liked the concept, the worldbuilding sounded interesting and the characters seemed intriguing, but it did not deliver. I did not connect to any of the characters, there was little suspence and in general I found this book quite lacking.
sad, I was really looking forward to it as I tremendously enjoyed the Ninth House.
