Really enjoying the introduction into the Tsar's story. The wording is so precise and I missed it the first time around. I don't think I understood the moral premise, though now I do. I love the depth of character building here and the promises made to the reader about who the Tsar really is. Really quality word-smithing here

It's rewind time. Listening to this again to dissect and pay closer attention to the million little details in the story.

I'm just past the part where captain Hodge dies, a point in the story I remember having taken much longer to reach during the first listen. I used to think this was a slow burn, but the progression and character building has changed so much in my mind as I revisit this story!
