This book was very good, even though I feel it stumbled a bit across the finish line. The characters are all interesting and flawed, but relatable and likeable. The story is tense and surprisingly dark at times. The magic system, godlike powers what have you, are a little all over the place but it never gets too extreme, and they're explained well enough without going too far into it to be confusing. I would recommend this to anyone who enjoys a little darker sci-fi featuring a mishmash assortment of characters struggling to do what they think is right.
