Overlapping mysteries, veiled characters, and progressively abrupt changes in your own perspective make you feel as though you’re going hand in hand with the protagonist through a shared descent into insanity—not unlike <i>Annihilation</i>—and it’s a total blast. Initially, it’s the SLOWEST of burns; simultaneously boring and deeply engaging. Just as foggy as the first, the small trickle of information, changing and growing in its revelations until reaching crescendo, where you learn everything and nothing at all.
