review:
It took me a while to get into this one, because the initial narrative is so jumbled — and on purpose. But the writing is gorgeous and the concept of the world is complex and consistent, so it won me over. Of the two narrators, the male voice is less distinctive, maybe less realistic, but not jarringly so. If I could’ve gotten my bearings a little quicker, I’d give it 4 stars. (Looking forward to the sequel.)
