Really immensely readable and exceptional storytelling. razor sharp and incisive, yet intentionally blunt in moments. Many places for you to ponder the morality of the world we live in and how the choices of characters are both aligned and distant in regards to questions of what are we willing to sacrifice. Philosophically invigorating and engaging.
