This didn't grab me until about 60% of the way through. The scene at the beginning put me off of the book and it  took a while for me to move past it mentally.

Mr. Reade is a dream and carried the last half of the book. I do not think I will seek out the second one at this time, but if I came across it in a few months, I might say, "What the heck," and give it a go.
