Really enjoyed this book - particularly the good cast of characters that all felt really fleshed out. 

The plot itself was intriguing, and I liked how it was slowly revealed over time, although occasionally all the myriad side characters being introduced made it a tiny bit confusing. 

Not sure how I felt about some of the non-white characters' speech being written phonetically at times, but at least they seemed to be written as decent layered characters. There were also a couple of times where the attempts at humour didn't really work for me - the cover reviews boasted about being Pratchett-esque, and some of the descriptions and asides of that nature felt a little too forced for me. 

Looking forward to getting into the next books and seeing where this little ragtag bunch ends up next.
