While this book is not necessarily the best read I've had, I do appreciate this work for its world-building and a lot of the concepts. I think one key point I'll make is to not concentrate too hard on the nitty-gritty details, as you can easily get lost in them and confuse yourself even further. 

I'll see how the rest of the books go, but I'm interested in seeing where the direction of the story goes.
