My first re-read of 2023. It’s an old favourite of mine.

The first third of this book - a science-driven mystery that needs to be unraveled - is exactly up my street.
The major turnaround halfway in this book diminished my interest somewhat though.
As the ending neared it seemed obvious that this was setting up a book series and I'm not sure if I am engaged enough with the characters to want to know more.
I think this might be the quickest book I’ve ever read. He has a writing style of lots of short chapters which makes it very easy to think ‘I’ll just read one more’.

Wonderfully bizarre. A book that combines so many different ideas ans genres which shouldn’t work together…but they exceed the sum of their parts.
This is a big book! I’m not used to reading physical books. Feels strange holding such a massive tome.

What an amazing book and what a fantastic central concept to underlie the plot. I loved reading this book. Don’t necessarily think of it as a ‘fantasy’ novel, I think many would enjoy this book even if you don’t normally read fantasy as a genre.
It is a long read (longer still if you read all of the footnotes) and I felt it start to drag a little bit over the last 100 pages.
But one of the most enjoyable books that I’ve read of late.
