4.0

Some of the frequent POV switching bogged me down, and it took until about 60% for me to become really invested. Chakraborty expertly weaves a complicated generational tapestry where there is no black and white and the only character with a true moral compass doesn’t seem to actually be the hero… interesting but complicated, and not my favorite type of story. But definitely going to finish the trilogy.
