Overall a 3.75.
Welch does a great job here painting the world and you can see the mixture of eastern and western cultures in the way the characters are named, dressed, etc. There’s some intrigue, a lot of action, some self reflection of the main character of Joseph “Joe” Godfrey. I particularly liked the way that Angelo was presented and I liked reading his dialogue because I definitely heard that southern-inspired drawl.
Overall a great first book from Welch and I’m interested to see where this series goes, especially because it looks like Joe has single-handedly changed the entire structure of his society. The last few chapters in particular ZOOMED with action. Loved it.
