The Devil's Detective by Simon Kurt Unsworth

2.0

I really struggled to break through this one. I wanted to like it, it has a wonderful concept and great world building! But overall I felt it was gross in unneeded ways and just so dense! I never felt like I got to know or like any of the characters because they were lost to the unending descriptions of the environment, instead of character building. When the end came along I felt as though we might get a little reward for making it through, but it was unsatisfying. That’s hell, I guess.
