I didn’t realise this was a companion novella until right at the end where I was madly confused as to what it all meant. Up until then though I was enjoying the sprawling tale of victims and paranormal time warp.
The annoyance you feel as each new character falls for different flavours of the same tricks each section. A great array of different characters and up until the end where all the crossover came to head I was enjoying the world building. I knew I planned to read more by David Mitchell and now I guess Bone Clocks is first on my list.
I did enjoy the twist on the very last page though and hope it’ll be followed up in other stories.
