Yeah it's pretty good. A hard(ish) sci-fi murder mystery which is pretty rare.

Has a few issues, being 1,000 pages, for example one twist I was kind of like "oh who was that guy again" despite having made notes on characters.

But overall the page count is worth it, a lot happens.

Pretty much, the author hated it because she went out of her way to make a fantasy setting with mostly black and brown characters, then they just ignored that on most cover art.

Those concerns aside, it is more eye-catching than the original cover that matched her vision.
