A small complaint about the kindle version.
The book uses many many different povs and switched between them frequently.
On the kindle sometimes there isn't a gap when a pov changes. This is usually when a page is turned. As a result you can think a character is doing something, but it's actually someone else. If they'd formatted it slightly better that problem wouldn't exist.
Otherwise enjoying this. Its pretty rich.
Very early into it.
It needs a thesaurus.
It's not full of samaragdine harpagons, but he's made up a lot of vocab. I suppose the slang localises it to a particular place. I don't mind it at all, but I can see it attracting comments.
Just bought Hive. I get a message on my kindle saying download is taking longer than expected. I've never gotten that before. Maybe it's a sign of the length of the book.
More mysteries is more better.
The Heresy series cleared up a lot of old mysteries, and often the stories we got weren't as good as the mystery giving rise to them.
