End of Part I: The book is extremely entertaining and the unique plot structure has kept me guessing all the way through the prologue. Although many characterizations and dialogues ring familiar (and thus one could argue, flat), the presentation of them, and in the context of worldbuilding, is frankly infectious. Color me very intrigued to see what this series is building up to.

End of Part II: some of the character webs feel a little too paper thin for the length of the book, but the action and settings always change fast enough to keep a steady pace flowing. Islington’s prose is consistently engaging and plays tropes up with ease. He can’t avoid clean philosophical dumps (presumably for the publishers) but it doesn’t feel out of place with the story’s propulsion.
