Not really liking the pacing, it makes the book feel like a 500+ page read while in actuality it's really not that long. The characters are also kind of flat and all the time skips aren't really helping either, though I'm hoping it gets better in the next books. The writing, the world-building, and the politics are where this book really shines at, so much that I wish the characters at least share half of that charm since it'd make the book a lot easier to love.
