I really wanted to love this book, but I found it so muddled the entire time. The author just throws a whole lot of fantastical elements at the reader and hopes for some to stick. I held out hope that everything would come together in the end, but I'm still not sure it did. I will be reading the second books with the hope of a change of setting and a more clear picture of things. The saying "clear as mud" really sums up this book.
Graphic: Death, Gore, and Violence
Moderate: Vomit and Religious bigotry
