It took me a bit to get into the story.  I felt like I was missing something, even though Lim spends a lot of time explaining everything.  The very unique and intriguing concept of the story did eventually draw me in and once I was there I was hooked.  It is definitely a concept that I've never encountered before.  Lim uses direct language and very strong descriptions to create a very solid world for his characters to thrive in.  Lim also works lots of intrigue and subterfuge into this story to keep his audience guessing.  The pace also really picks up at the end, becoming quite exciting.The characters in this novel were quite interesting with unique and memorable and pronounceable names that you are drawn to.  You know what everyone does and where they came from, but who they are and what they look like remains a bit of a mystery for many of the characters.  The cast of prominent characters is so large that it is difficult to develop everyone sufficiently.  I feel that I barely got to know a handful of them.  The author also jumps back and forth between the various characters, and it becomes a little hard to keep straight at times.Overall this was an `out of this world' fantasy (excuse the pun) that would be enjoyed by those who enjoy outer space and fantasies.  It is a story of good conquering evil with a twist, a kick, and a few spins.Please note that I received this novel free of charge from the author in exchange for an honest review.
