The setting is really original and cool, and I really wanted to root for the two protagonists and their relationship. And the mystery plot is interesting and resolves in a satisfying way. But something about the writing just didn't quite fit comfortably for my brain, and everything just felt a bit detached. For me, it needed a bit more world building at the front-end (a better use of Prologue, if one needs one at all). For a novella, I spent too much time trying to "see" the environment, scaffolding the information around the mystery, which drew me out of the story. The characters, though, are very interesting and I would be interested in reading more of their adventures. sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha
