Currently at chapter 3. So far, I’ve been really enjoying the read and I have high hopes for it.
Even though it reminds me of Red Rising - apparently, Baru will infiltrate the higher ranks of the empire to destroy it from within - the setting is very different. Indeed, I find it refreshing that it takes inspiration from the Age of Discovery, showing mercantilistic practices, as well as their consequences.
