Stepping outside of my SF&F comfort zone with this one.
Even for books in a series, I like some sort of a feeling of completion after each one, but this one provides very little of that. It reads less like an individual book, more like a really long prologue to the books to come. As such it's mainly character driven, and while the characters are currently quite one-dimensional, it seems to be intentional to let the characters grow, develop and hopefully heal in the following books.
The writing makes it a great page turner though. I will probably be at least giving the next book a shot.
