I tried to read this book a few years ago and DNF it because of the BLATANT GROOMING AND PEDOPHILIA. But after reading and loving everything else this author wrote, i decided to give it a second chance and the benefit of the doubt.
Don't get me wrong. I still find this book disturbing and problematic. And the grooming is still there (along with borderline pedophilia). But I kind of understood where it was going and I could appreciate the plot (and the other books in the trilogy).
Anyway. Beware the problematic content but great worldbuilding nonetheless.
