I loved this book from start to finish, it had so many insane moments that made it an incredibly interesting read from start to finish - my only criticism is that I wish the ending was a little more flushed out, but the author literally died so thats not even valid criticism. One part I REALLY enjoyed was the descriptions of Archimboldis writing style, and how it almost replicates the style 2666 was written in.
