I wanted to like this more than I did. It was an interesting concept - a man who could tell the future, a man who saw sounds as colours, and a woman who was a physicist collide in the mid-1880s - but it was slow-paced and even though a few key events happened, I didn't feel like many questions were answered. As it ended, I didn't have a good sense of how and why everything happened, and what would happen next - so much of the story was left open-ended.
