I've finished: The Saint of Bright Doors by Vajra Chandrasekera

This is a story about revenge, about revolution, about the power to change the world, about an anti-hero who wants to escape his destiny.

It is a story of myth, of political philosophy, of religion, of racism, of classism, of pogroms and oppression.

There is a creation myth, there is a fractured city, there is a plague, there are doors to nowhere, there is a support group for unchosen ones, and at the center of it all there is Fetter, Who just wants to make a normal life for himself. But there are more forces trying to manipulate him into action than he suspects.

There is so much here, I'm sure I missed allot of cultural and historical references, but at it's core, this is a book about an autocrat that needs to be stopped and at it's center is a reluctant anti-hero and it is brilliantly written.
