I'd give this 3.5 stars if I could. In some places the whole thing was a bit... long-winded. The background/worldbuilding came in bits and pieces, and could've made everything far more interesting had it been placed better. A lot of the twists and turns I saw coming from miles away. Overall I liked the concept of it though, scrivings, merchant houses, a world turned upside down. The characters fell a bit flat, as only one of them really seemed to have grown, but the end of it all is promising in regard to future development of the main character. My favorite character: Clef. And the gravity rigs tbh, they had funny dialogues.
