Can't really tell if this is a genius piece of work, utterly complex and confusing, I am too dense or a combination of all the above.
I like how it jumps from perspective to perspective and "time to time"; but there are so many names, nicknames and places going on that I had a hard time remembering who was who and who did what and when.
It ends kind of abruptly and although I got some answers I feel more lost than after reading the first book
I'll read the last instalment out of curiosity, but it is a weird book
