I mean, I’ve only read two other books by China and I quite liked both of them so I think he has some chops as a writer. We should keep in mind PSS is one of his earlier books.
And heck I’ll even say I found a good amount to enjoy in PSS, to the point me and a friend made a whole DND campaign inspired by it. But yeah I think China is kinda cocky and seemed to inject a lot of unneeded edgy shit in the story. I get it’s supposed to be all GrimDark, but come on dude.
spoilers
Also I saw the fucking reveal of bird dudes crime from like a mile away. Thought maybe he’d make it something more clever and morally ambiguous but no, just go for the worst crime of passion you can thing of!
