It started out slowly but it got really intense later in the book.

Vivid world building, many intricate characters who have crossing interests, and a good sense of past make this a great book. I am, however, a shallow person who prefers to naively cheer for the protagonists, and in this murky world of grey that's hard to do. Maybe these mobbish guys are slightly less evil than the other guys, but then again, maybe not. ...more
