I was drawn to the first person flying experience in this book. I guess you have an affinity for that or not. Sam Claymore, particularly in the early and middle part of the book, is not a particularly attractive character; he is isolated and kind of empty, as he flies and lives but not much else. This could be the kind of guy who drifted into crime; he has a moral centre only by default and can be incentivized to drift. That changes, though not entirely, as the story progresses and the authors allow him to emerge as a human being when things get ugly. The book holds your interest and I have been drawn in enough to read book two, where I hope that the vivid action and humanity of the characters are combined throughout the book We know that Sam has a centre; let's see what he does with it.
