The story is FABULOUS! All of the twists, turns, and everyone has their own agenda.
The narrator did a better job in previous books. I’m not sure if it’s because there is SUCH a huge cast in this book or what, but the narrator does different voices for the characters and sometimes the voices sound the same. Or characters would get a different voice for a part. Or a character’s voice would be just wrong for a section. This made it difficult to follow the different characters in some scenes.
