The Inverted Forest

I was disappointed by this novel. After focusing on the perspectives of a few main characters, Dalton introduces a new POV in the second half of the novel. If introduced in the first half as well, this character might have offered additional insight and more complicated layers of character development. Instead, a book that could have been a nuanced look at human frailty, the rush to judgement, and the idea of intelligence falls flat and, to be honest, is a little offensive.
