Might need to reread from the start now that it is clear what's happening. There were probably early signs that I looked over that were leading up to this point.
I was so confused at times and thought the author lost the plot, but I'm glad I didn't drop it.
This one was just as frustrating as people said. Ot really feels like the characters are underdeveloped and the ending was unsatisfactory. Are there going to be side stories?
Now that the officials have started the story does make more sense. I hadn't realized he could sense pheromones. I assume that's important for later.
