  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated

Ambitious story line but there were a lot of things that I found gratuitous and unnecessary. When the story started ramping up, I was intrigued, but I ultimately felt a little let down by the last couple hundred pages. It was definitely an adventure of a book though.
