What I liked about it: Exploring the relation between religion, myth-making, and power. And the smooth writing.
Other than that, there was so much lacking in this book. It's violent, deliberately so. But it doesn't do enough with its premise to explore the dynamics of the world it creates beyond the initial upheaval. The finale was quite disappointing for me; there's too much left to the imagination about what happens, when that's the critical element of the book.
Still, a fun read.
