Interesting world that seems inspired by Incan/Mayan cultures with trappings of period European/Western fashion and modern sensibilities. However, the writing is a bit overwrought with fantastical imagery while at the same time being very distancing. I can't get into any of the characters, which makes me not care about trying to remember all the details of the world that is being thrown at me. 
 This book will be good for people who don't need to care about characters and can just enjoy the world and plot.
