Es un gran libro, con una trama increíble y una historia que logra atraparte. Sin embargo, siento que hacia el final se fue quedando un poco corto. El desenlace me pareció algo abrupto, como si simplemente hubiera que terminar la historia y ya. En mi opinión, le faltó un poco más de desarrollo y profundidad para cerrar todo lo que había construido a lo largo del libro.

Very well written, although a bit slow and not a subject I am really that attracted to. I really like the world building though.

Me dejó pa la caga, una revelación en todos los aspectos de una verdad
latente entre nosotros, me tuvo tenso y me costó leerlo, buena lectura y me inmersé realmente en el ambiente .
