review 1: I hated the book! At first I had great problems understanding parts of the book. Most specialised literature I've come across so far is easier and more entertaining to read!None of the characters is likeable. You keep on wondering what they are doing and why. Their actions are not plausible at all.I don't even know why I bothered reading on until the end. Because the end ist worst. Nothing is explained, there is no real climax, just a really shitty ending.
review 2: Chapter one had me hopeful that this was an actually good book. Hunters find a circle of bodies in the snow, evidence of a mysterious sect known as the Faith. It was a delightful first chapter, intriguingly well-painted, nearly five star level. But then the author introduced her main characters and ... morethey were just awful. I tried to like them, but as the book continued I grew increasingly disgusted toward just about everyone for stupid illogical actions, overly verbose & dramatic everything, and being in general just completely unlikeable. Duncker tried way too hard. Just because one knows lots of adjectives doesn't mean one should use them so copiously. I'm more mad about this being a dumb book than I normally would be, because it wasn't just a bad book, it was a bad book that momentarily fooled me into thinking it was a good book, and that's just unforgivable. less
