Без надежды на искупление

I have friends who enjoyed this book a lot and recommended it for being dark and original, two things for which I should have loved it.
It is - congratulations for that.
And I didn't.
Perhaps because I felt the writing to be stiff and the dialogues pompous, the characters lacking depth or simply because the story did not catch me, feeling more like a superhero(es) story than dark fantasy (I do not like anything with superheroes). I am not sure, but I did not go past 100 pages.
