It kept changing, to the point where I was not sure what was true anymore.
One of those twists was the parentage of one of the characters. The plot itself was intriguing, but at times there seemed to be plot twists for the sake of plot twists. I wasn’t sure how I would like the narrative structure, but once I got used to it, I quite enjoyed it. There is also a third narrator, who will eventually pick up the story, who provides insights throughout both narratives in the form of footnotes. Another narrative (I won’t give that away), tells Kihrin’s story from further back in his past. Kihrin narrates the more recent events of his life, those events that lead us to the jail cell where we first meet him. The story of Kihrin, our main protagonist, is told in a fragmented form by two narrators. The most interesting thing about the book is the structure. Does it live it up to the hype? Mostly yes. The level of hype was closer to what you would get for a movie or tv show, rather than a debut novel. This book has been popping all over the place.
