Amazing story, it engulfs your mind with detail and perspective in every scene, creating vivid animation. despite this, somehow the author still speaks directly to you through it, painting the message of his work in bold lettering. If this is not brilliance at play, then nobody is brilliant.

Continues the Will of the Many, more intriguing world & culture building. And leaving me ready for (hopefully) the 3rd book. Definitely recommend reading this series.
