A great science fiction book
I received a free copy of the book through goodreads first reads.
3.5/5 stars. A good book filled with interesting characters and a rich, full world that is massive in scope. It was a little hard to get into the book in earlier chapters because of all of the references to places/words/events/etc. that you have no real knowledge of what, where, or who it is talking about. Once you get farther in the book, however, all of it begins to come together and you have a better understanding of how deep and complex the world in this series actually is.
Another thing that was difficult in the beginning was how the perspective kept changing between the characters, told from one characters perspective in one paragraph, a different character in the next, and back again to the first character in a third paragraph. Once you get used to it, however, this approach was actually fairly interesting as it allows you to see events from each of the characters perspectives.
All in all it was a good book that I enjoyed reading and I look forward to reading more books from this series. I recommend this book to anyone with an interest in science fiction, and while it is a bit difficult in the beginning, if you stick with it you will be rewarded with an impressively detailed and rich world with a great story to go along with it.
