I have sat down and contemplated about this book for a while now after finishing it. It's left me with a feeling of emptiness and has me saying “Now what?”. It starts off beautifully I think describing the routines and life in the city introducing us but not giving away fully the sense and motive behind the movement of the city. The story gets much more exhilarating after the 100 or so pages to the point of being overwhelming and shocking. The mysterious unnamed world in which the book takes place is quite fascinating and it's incredible the way it's described, it's very transportive. It puts us in the same boat as the main character we find out the mechanics, reasoning and science behind it along with him. I loved all the different geography with the challenges it provided and the operations that were required for running the city. It is not easy to let go of this world and the characters they will stay with you for a long time.
