adventurous dark mysterious tense medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

3.0

I was less enthusiastic about this book than I thought I would be. Spufford creates an interesting alternative history, but he could have done the same in a more condensed form. In short, I wanted more dark, smoky jazz clubs and fewer plot twists.
