Trust me, the book gets easier as it goes along. You could call it sort of dystopian paranormal steam punk but the story is catchy enough. I must admit though, I guessed why Ellie knew Seth wasn't the Vessel and who the Finn urchin really was a long time before the end of the novel. That being said, there were some surprise plot twists to keep me guessing. It seems to me that there will probably be a sequel after Eliie's discovery of the map showing another City and also the repair of her underwater boat meaning she could perhaps take a journey to it in a future novel. Fun book with a dark edge. ( )
