Good world, bad characters
Weak. FL is the strongest wimp I've ever read. She has so much power and agency on paper, but she takes no meaningful actions in the the latter 40% of the story. The mystery of what's going on is interesting, and the mechanics of the world are the only redeeming quality. The politics are bare bones and shallow. The Duke is also (understandibly, in context) a wet towel of a person for half of the story. It's not good and this was the hardest DukeSlop to get through, but its not like, irredeemably bad. Theres nugget...
