but because it was Graendal, it's not. I do think it came off a bit "hindsight 20/20 ahead of time", but that could just be because we did read it after-the-fact. But I don't think anything was done that was not perfectly within the abilities and inclination of Graendal's character.

It's pacing and editing was bad, I see and agree on that. But the story overall was great.
