I love Golden. I hope this book was just a product of it's time because it was a mess.
The plot surrounds "hell" stealing parts of Earth, so Octavian and crew has to save it while avoiding corrupt priests that want to kill them.
There were some really cool ideas, but it felt like the wasn't a focus and the rotational deaths of point of view characters felt unnatural and crazy to track.
I already know that some of his series just aren't for me and I don't think this one is, but there is only two books left so I'm very torn about this whole thing. Also it's out of print, so I'll have to buy it.

Went in with lessened expectations, came out actually interested in the series.
