Fast-paced and full of unexpected plot twists. The descriptions of this dark Scandinavian-based world are great for story immersion. I took away a star (star & a half) for something lacking in the characters and emotional connection to them. The main character is a nice guy, but he's too passive and has too little self-respect for me to like him. However, he's not the only point-of-view character, and I'll read the next book in the series.
