A slow start
The book had a much slower start than I thought it would be, but I'm hoping that slow start was to do a bunch of world building and leg work for the second book. I'm a bit mad at the rushed tie up at the end. I was about 71% of the way through before it was starting to pick up the pace past a skip. So, having less than a single chapter to tie up loose ends was a bit unsatisfying even with the promise of a book two.
