A perfectly respectable and enjoyable book. A little too light on the fantasy aspect to net a higher rating. The writing style was strong. I will definitely read more by this author in future.

Pacing was rather slow, and the action sequences felt a tad forced. World building was also somewhat lacking for me. Though I did enjoy the field notes turned published work vibe.

I recommend reading this book when one is fully awake, so as not to miss anything.
