This is a tough one to like. The author has a habit of awkward info-dumps through dialogue which messes with immersion. There are also many grammatical errors throughout the book, ranging from comma splices to inconsistencies on spelling. The characters are mostly one-note with little variety between them. Finally, the warning of slow-burn is more than accurate - this book has no "spice" to it.
