I could barely finish this! Hope you like it more than I did.

I like it 😂 I imagine the characters as cartoon characters for some reason, and the whole story feels like The Corpse Bride. It’s entertaining even though it’s not remotely as dark as some reviews describe it. The mix of sci-fi, fantasy, horror and humour works well for me - and the weirdness, which I like. Maybe a bit too descriptive at times and while it’s not at China Mieville or Jeff VanderMeer’s level, I’d say I’m not disappointed.
