Weird book. Some really good moments surrounded by a whole lot of blehh. Don't understand how this one is so much more hyped than the first.
Also the premise of the main character that makes him interesting (and that was literally the character introduction in the prologue) has not even been slightly explored. Am i taking crazy pills? Start handling the alien sociology!!!!

With how fast im speeding through this book it might seem as if I like it a lot, which isn't necessarily the case. The first 200 pages were a slog, with 1 plotline in particular that actively pissed me off.
Since then the story actually began, and it's a lot more interesting now. But yeah, definitely a step down from the first book (which is odd cus I know book 2 is seen as better by the fandom)
