This is a hard book to rate. There are some parts that I like but overall I found the book a bit hard to get into and read. I'm not sure why though, perhaps the language was a bit too complicated or it was told non-linearly. However, it is very fascinating at times too, and I can only imagine the language in the original English (I read the translated version). I also found it hard to connect to the characters even though I thought the book was best when all of the characters were present in one scene.
