Each chapter in this book could be dripping with emotion. Where the story feel short for me was in the presence of emotion. While I did not see the ending for the alchemist coming, I loved how it wrapped it all up. Plus family drama, we all know any organization that thrives on lineage is going to have it's fair share of family drama. The occult aspects were fantastic, I loved the way the author mixed political intriguing in with a long standing secret underground of alchemists. From clothes, to speech to how people treated each other. Each scene was well crafted, and felt as if it came out of the time period. Overall, I enjoyed the book and would recommend it to anyone that loves occult woven into the fabric of our reality. Discovered this book through the show, wanted to read it before I watch it.
