DNFd at 68 pages. 

I simply don’t think this authors writing is for me. I love multi POV usually but this was just a lot to try and follow. 

There was also a lot of information thrown at your very quickly. I can guarantee I wouldn’t have remembered 99% of it. Why add it if it’s not really important and if it is important, well I’ve forgotten it anyway. I’d much prefer little bits throughout than big blocks of text. 


Also, in the prologue it’s the 1400s. Why would the main character of that bit expect to hear the ‘buzz’ of a saw. I’m no historian but I’m pretty sure saws weren’t buzzing back then.

I liked it, but I didn't love it. It was nicely paced, tensed where needed and ofcourse mysterious, but there often was too much "background chatter". It was mostly an easy read, for a holiday. Better than others, but I also have read better ones in this genre.

Lone wolf genius longing for his one-time girlfriend who coincidentally has some kind of super secret bible (?) secret, he has to save her from disaster, there are some "heretics", a bunch of violence, etc., etc. After a couple of chapters I realized I didn't gaf and returned it to the library. Pedestrian and unoriginal.
