This needs a female narrator - I’m not a fan of West’s performance (even when I can understand him).

Blake manages a fleshed out, full cast of characters with a punchy, memorable narrative voice. She brings something really fantastical to magical realism. I could see fans of Stephanie Garber or Erin Morgenstern who want something more “mature” enjoying this.

Unfortunately the foul language is too much.

I find Steve West difficult to understand— I’m remembering why I found it so hard to get into The Atlas Six. Will persevere.
