Extraordinarily written, the writer pulls no punches and weaves the story beautifully, my only issue is that while I understand the writer's dedication to leaving in lots of graphic or difficult scenes, I felt that towards the middle of the book it became a little too bogged down in the gore for me to easily recommend it without so warnings
