I find it hard to really become connected to any one of the characters. The author adds so many perspectives that it is hard to keep up with all of them, let alone actually care about them.

So far I've grasped the book is about what seems to be two rivals, uplanders and downlanders. However I have no clue what they really are. Are they families? Cultures? Cities? People?
