Fun but a bit too predictable

I'm interested in the world and the power dynamics, but multiple big points in the mystery portion of the novel were obvious many chapters before they happened. Which isn't a degree of cleverness I normally have for other mysteries. That extends at least a bit to the larger mystery surrounding the leviathans, though I do still want to continue with this series and see how that larger plot ultimately plays out.
