Some great world building and really a great basis for what I hope will be an awesome trilogy. But honestly and king of frustratingly this book gave me more questions than answers.
This was not helped by the fact that the first half of this book is a slog. It takes a while to build a connection with the characters and on top of that there are a lot of well written supporting cast that you are also introduced to to learn aswell. Due to the three POV's I found it hard to keep up, but when I did finally connect to each character and know who everyone was I really started to enjoy this. Also loved the last 200 or so pages, they are definitely a ride with lots happening and some epic scenes for the mind.
However Just felt like we could have a bit more payoff at the end, I will come back and update this review once I finish the trilogy , but as a standalone it was fine. Just not great.
