"Good, but not great. It was so close, but fell a little short for me. Honestly, I think this may have been better as a duology, so that more info could have been added on certain characters / topics. There were so many characters, and it took a bit to be able to keep track of them. I would have liked to have fewer characters so we could go deeper with some of them.<br/><br/>It was still a very enjoyable story. I liked the main plot points, and it was creative. I just wanted a little bit more."

"It was a really good plot with enjoyable characters, if you’re looking for an easy read its good, but it moves too fast with too little transitions and the plot points aren’t explained clearly enough or at all."
