What a trippy book. Sci-fi can be difficult for me to follow, and Muir approaches the world through Gideon's understanding, which means things aren't always explained. This took some getting used to, but ultimately served the narrative and made the world feel real and lived-in. Unraveling the mysteries of Lyctorhood was fascinating and horrifying. The sharp turn the book takes into horror at a certain point was bone-chilling (lol) and felt earned. A fantastic start to the series and a compelling story I know I'll be returning to over and over again. "We do bones," indeed.
