I really enjoy the authors work on The Magnus Archives, which in my opinion is a faster pace than this book. 

The story is good and maybe it was the audio performances that made it difficult for me to listen to. 

I enjoyed the story as an Allegory. I don't know that I'd read it again but I did enjoy it and I would recommend it to others.
