Really enjoyed this. Was worried I wouldn't, because of the slivers of 2016 meme humour-- but I am pleased to say they didn't bother me after a while. Muir is very talented and writes some great, sharp sentences, and this is a very well-deployed first book in a series, that still tells a complete story while leaving questions and plot threads echoing around in your head. Putting the sequel on hold now.
