I, too, just read this, but while I found it quite gripping, it repeated bits of info over and over, making it quite annoying when reading it in a short space of time. Would have worked well as a weekly serial in a newspaper, but needed a solid edit before going into novel form. Good story though.

I also read this book a few weeks ago after having stumbled upon it in a HN reading list somewhere. Though enjoyable, I have to agree wholeheartedly with your statement about it being pretty repetitive. It started off really good but I was happy when I finished reading it.
