You main character does not have to be likeable. Getting that out of the way because where you end up there I don't think is vitally important on how you overall feel about this book.
Oh, and sucker for a magic system that plays fundamentally into the story. Coding for magic isn't new, I think Foundryside did a wonderful rendition on it. But all the mechanics in place here make it function precisely as needed. This book isn't what I would call "a blast" but Wang dives headfirst and doesn't let up.
