I liked it, and there was certainly a lot to like. The world-building was great, and at times the stream-of-consciousness narrative style really quite worked (though generally took a while to get used to). Overall though there were a few too many moments where the author told instead of showed, and it led to some reveals that I didn't find satisfying. I'll get around to the sequels, but I'm not in a particular rush for them at the moment.
