I thought i’d like this book, as i’m a huge fan of Vandermeer’s other works (SR Trilogy, Borne), but this was just a chore.
The story felt hard-to-follow with not much payoff in the end. Maybe its ideas were too complex for my simpleton brain, but i just simply was not a fan. It was well-written and had some ideas i did like. Others…not so much.
