Took a while to get into it after the time jump after the first in the series, but after 100 pages or so, it really picked up. I'm normally not one for political intrigue or issues but it was done really well and it was all very accessible and relevant and was interspersed in the narrative so it never felt like an info dump which I really appreciated.
