The Gnomileshi economy is interesting, but seems like it would be rife with potential pitfalls for the author. Wondering how it reconciles with the Goodies, or, I suppose, if it even needs to.

I've noticed that this story will not let you get comfortable. Every time there's an established group of characters and a plan of action, something goes wrong that pulls the group apart and dashes the plan. It certainly drives the action, but it diminishes my enjoyment of the characters and their interactions. I'm also wondering what, if anything, will be resolved by the end of the novel.
