If you like multiple characters stories that all connect to a bigger picture this is the book for you. If you like conspiracy theories but in a not crazy way this book is for you. It started off slow, but once it gets going it was sooooooo good.

kaidoz's review against another edition

There were too many characters and the perspective changed too often for me to get attached to any of them. Some of the chapters were so short that I didn’t get anything out of them and there were a lot of questions that weren’t even close to being answered which made it hard for me to stay interested. Ten chapters in and the characters were still just being introduced and there were only about thirty chapters if I remember correctly. I read the first ten in two sittings and could not pick the book back up after. I almost couldn’t remember I read it because of how forgettable it was.
