This was sooo close to being 5 stars for me. Sadly, the ending felt abrupt and left me with too many questions. But up to that point, what an amazing ride. I loved the way it played with my expectations, explored the characters and 'leeches' of the world. It reminded my a lot of 'Fall of the House of Usher', but did it so so well. I hope there's a sequel to this that explores the world more. I would buy it in a hot minute. I can't wait to see what this amazing gets up to next (this was a debut novel!)
