It had an interesting combination of being a world-spanning epic and also a personal story of survival. As you pointed out, space opera with fantasy characters, if that makes sense. I found Khesh City to be a character in and of itself; every city has it's underbelly, life is always hard there and family, in whatever form it takes, is all. I hope it does well, if only so I can find out what happens next.
