Way too long. I was halfway through a 23 hour audiobook and still did not care about the characters or the plot.

Ik ben blij dat ik heb door gezet. Maar eh, had dit boek niet zo'n 100 pagina's minder lang kunnen zijn?

When the exciting incident happens 300 pages in, I’m out. Part 3 was interesting, but not interesting enough for me to want to recommend this book to anyone. Also the entire ending felt very random in connection with the rest of the book. Overall, I thought special topics was very disjointed and trying really hard to be secret history and no where near as good.

I would have liked this much more if a lot of the first half was taken out. The last half was much easier to read for me and enjoyable. Personally I wasn’t a huge fan of the narration - it was interesting but the asides and references took me out of the story quite a bit, though I understand why it was done that way. Overall I did like it much more once I finished it, but I had to really soldier through until I got to the good stuff.
