Senlin Ascends
by Josiah Bancroft
This book is about a man, Thomas Senlin, who goes to the mythical Tower of Babel with his new wife on their honeymoon but quickly gets seperated from her and must travel up through the tower to have any hope of finding her again. This book has many good qualities. It is very well-written and easy to read. It is also well paced and a book that it is very easy to fly through. The worldbuilding is excellent and I really loved the concept of the Tower of Babel. The characters are well-rounded and very believable. The main character, Senlin, is also particularly strong and a great character to follow on this journey. I just didn't care about anything that happened in this book. Objectively, this is a great book for all the reasons mentioned above but it just wasn't the book for me which is disappointing as I had high hopes for this book. I can see why many people love this book and I'm just sad that I'm not one of them. I would also still recommend this book as it's a good book it just didn't work for me.
