I really enjoyed this. I loved the long style, although was thrown briefly by the POV changes–still not 100% sold on how they were integrated but I’m super obnoxious about Sticking To The Bit once you’ve established it so hey.
Love that it started as a web serial tho???? Congrats on making it big dude.
Just overall tight, well written, narratively satisfying.
