The beginning was slow then picked up well enough to get through the book at a decent medium pace. Great world building and adventure with loads of humor. The ending was strong and left me with a more questions than answers.

There is no fat on this whatsoever. Just an incredibly tight read with a colorful cast.

This book wasn’t bad, but it wasn’t for me.
