The thing I liked most about this novel was the idea behind the story. I can say I liked the book, also because its fluency allowed me to immerse in the story, but once I finished I realized that many things were not explained, leaving me with many doubts about the plot and the characters. The main characters don't have characteristics that make them particular or peculiar, but they are described just enough to understand the reason of their actions. The biggest problem is the rest of the characters, because we don't know nothing about them, they appear in scenes and then disappear immediately after. I don't want to give a higher rating to this book because I find that some elements are missing in the story to make the reader passionate, not just to the story but also to the characters and the world created. I would have liked to know more about Caraval and its artists, understand why or how of their presence, understand how this world was made, since is mentioned a subdivision in Empires, the reason why Legend instead has a small island in the middle of everything and under nobody's rule. I understand give the information "strictly" necessary to understand the story but I think a little more details wouldn't have been bad. I hope for a more intriguing and explanatory sequel.
