Some elements were great. Some were bad. Way too much unnecessary scene setting detain.

I loved that the mystery involved the universe itself, that the world is only revealed as the story unfolds. 

It took a chapter or two to get into it, but once the style became familiar I loved everything about it. 

The audiobook was great because of the way the narrator interacts with the characters.

i sincerely enjoyed this very much and think it's quite a lot better than evelyn hardcastle. i love the world turton has crafted here and i love the characters and i think this is a very, very good mystery novel. also, unbelievably beautiful cover.

I really wish you could give half stars, since this is definitely a 3.5, and not quite a 4. His writing is really wonderful and inventive, and 7 1/2 Deaths was a favorite of mine.

I was with the characters, went along on this journey in a world slightly different from ours, and had some fun.

The ending is where it lost me. It felt like a let down, and everything was tied up in a bow.

That being said Turtons writing and ideas will keep me coming back.

This is absolutely my new favorite book!
