A solidly great read..

Well written story that could have been tauter, and more impactful, with less repetition of story's primary tropes. Cumulatively it felt like the writer holds a remarkably low opinion of his readers capacity to grasp the story's essentials. Given, however, all the dialed-in writing that exists in this genre and the high quality of this book's writing if not structure, the book is definitely worth the credit!
