Big fan of the Green Bone Saga but I think this missed the mark. I very much appreciate Isako being an older experienced protagonist but the pacing was slow to the point standstill at times, the mystery in the end was not entirely interesting, and they way the book wraps up wasn’t entirely satisfying to account for the slow pacing. Bit a disappointment, however a very well written book set in an extremely interesting world. Very much a corporate espionage novel as opposed to a fast paced action based novel, there’s a lot to love if you go in with the mind for a slower paced sci-fi novel.
