Very trippy book, reads like a fucked up nightmare /positive
There isn't really a strong plot, but the book still manages to build up an incredible tension.
The author definitely knows how to create an atmosphere and his description of certain things created very vivid images in my mind
The inside of the tower is especially clear in my mind. The fucking fleshy walls covered in weird mushroom words. THE FUCK??


The ending is a bit too open for my taste, but maybe the sequels will at least answer some of the myriad of questions that I have right now
