      Trying to find time to read this is tough given it takes some actual focus due to the jargon and dense writing for its world building. Enjoying it so far, more than I thought I would. There is intrigue in all areas mentioned, religion, political landscape, conspiratorial groups of power controlling things with plans in motion set well in the past. The actual plot lines are blurred for me but Its still early days

      This will take some time to get through (more due to personal life stuff occupying my time) - I want to/need to dedicate time and brain power to reading this as it's very dense. So far a hunter seeker was sent to kill Paul but he demonstrated his swift abilities and killed it first. It's interesting prose and writing style where I get glimpses of characters thoughts and inner monologues - cool and different

      A struggle to start this one. Not only cause of life and lack of time but also because it is extremely jargon heavy with terms, names, places, religions and all sorts which made it very hard to maintain my attention while reading. There have been glimmers of explanations for a lot of it through characters who are learning so I hope for more of that otherwise this is gonna be a slog. Let's find out shall we
