The world-building overall is remarkable and constant; the tribal landscape is rich and complex, imbued with multilayered power struggles and a seamless interweaving of mysticism, tradition, and modernity. There are myriad powerful and subtly woven themes throughout the story that add even more prescience to the prose, touching on imbalances of power, retribution, perspective, and flexible ideas of destiny. Alternating between narrative viewpoints is a particular strength of this story, and the characters’ distinct personalities and speech patterns are refreshingly consistent. The storytelling voices shift smoothly from introspective to manic, whip-smart to curious, pithy to provocative, nudging the reader towards intention and meaning without overburdening the prose.
