Downright gruesome, don't eat while listening! As usual for Michael Crichton's books, this is chock full of science facts weaved in with something sinister.
Due to the number of scientists involved, the story gets bogged down at the start, when each is being introduced along with their area of expertise. The storyline bogs down every now and again for the authors to dive into something going on at that moment. Thankfully it's usually short-lived and movement picks back up again.

Incredibly detailed about all aspects related to the author's live and her studies: the history of the area she lived in, the communities, the people, the arts, and cultures involved. Sometimes I needed a bit of patience to get thru a section that didn't necessarily interest me but overall, well worth the read.

The start of this book seemed to have the makings of someone living in a royal court where everyone is looking over their back for the stabber, either bodily or politically. I began picturing everyone in black leather, floor-length, coats and black boots. Just my own perceptions.

Didn't get moving really until mid-way thru and I'm seriously confused about which characters are which? There are several I have no memory of even those I've read all the previous books. It'd be nice if she had a prologue giving a summary of people and goings-on from the prior chapters/novellas in every novella.
Rather than reading all prior books multiple times, I'm going to way for the next 2-3 novellas to come out, which is years down the road.
