One of the things that bugged me the most was the lack of real thought towards the world-building. We're told the British Empire is only able to maintain power through the control of silver magic, yet it seems to hold the same power that it did in our world at that time. For example, the victory at the battle of waterloo supposedly was only achieved because of the silver ships, but that victory happened without silver in the real world.>! Ultimately, it made the ending fall flat because we know what that empire is capable of without silver anyway.!<
