This book was masterfully crafted, and the care put into each line rivals that displayed in the author's previous book. The amount of meta jam-packed into this book was astounding. At every turn, you could see the reflexive layers reminding you of what has already happened even as they pull you farther into the narrative. And the mythos! And the imagery! And the characters! And the romance! I could write multiple essays on this book, but suffice it to say that I cannot get enough.
