middlegame is the best one in the series so far but it's so fun to see the other aspects, the seasons, the moons

This installment is easier to follow than earlier books in the series, but the endless obsession with the "impossible city" is maddening—how many times can you repeat a phrase? The beginning drags, and the convoluted prose is frustrating, typical of the author’s style. I’m here solely for the story, hoping for the return of Roger, Dodger, and the emo assassin. Unfortunately, the Lunas are dull and not nearly as engaging. A slog, but I’m hanging on for the characters I care about.

Overall I enjoyed this Alchemical Journey quite a bit. The moon gods and goddesses were engaging and we got some quality time with Roger and Doger.
