While the concept is intriguing, I found the execution a bit heavy-handed. The characters were somewhat lost in the spectacle.

I enjoyed the fast-paced action but the story got a bit muddled towards the end. Still a worthwhile read.

Intense and thought-provoking. Adjei-Brenyah’s world is brutal, but the characters are compelling. A tough read, but worth it.

I was hooked from the first page. The premise is wild, but the story kept me engaged. A bit too graphic at times.
