The Last Sun by K.D. Edwards

Did not finish book. Stopped at 13%.
The ideas behind this book seemed interesting, and there's a lot going on in this world. But I can't tell if there was too much going on or it just wasn't explained well, because I spent most of the time incredibly confused. There's guns, but there's also magic. There are humans, but also fey and werewolves (and Atlanteans, who I can't figure out if they're human or something different). There is "human society" and a second magical society and I have no idea how the two relate. The houses of Atlantean society are either named after or physical manifestations of the major arcana tarot cards. And Rune, the protagonist, is not exactly a bad character, but he kind of feels like one of those urban fantasy characters who's trying way too hard to be a badass to actually be a badass. In fact, not of the characters are particularly interesting or emotionally engaging. This whole book seems like it's not quite sure what it really wants to be, and so ends up being a bit confusing and not all that interesting.
