Wow. This book was a trip.
As I try to gather my thoughts and emotions into something coherent, I realize that whatever rambling attempt at coherence is possible will inevitably come at the expense of spoilers. So. Many. Spoilers. I find it impossible to talk about my impressions without mentioning all the big twists and bigger reveals. So I guess I'll just say: this was a wild ride, Harrow's mind is about as dark a place as I expected, the worldbuilding and mystery plots here are even better than in book one, and the storytelling techniques the author applies are devious.
If you start reading Harrow the Ninth and wonder if you're reading a sequel to the wrong novel, please just keep reading.
Also, can I please have book three right about now? No? Damn.
