Codex
2 journalers for this copy...
Second copy of this one. I read the advance reader last year.
Interesting book. Nothing about any of the characters makes me care about them, however the pace is such that I didn't lose interest in the story, even if I didn't invest much in the characters. I was initially attracted to this because it reminded me of Club Dumas but it isn't as well drawn as that. Ian Pears (a writer I will become more familiar with this summer) is quoted on the cover of this book saying it is a thought-provoking read, and it is, but a bit too much computer game stuff thrown in for my taste. Fast read though, once I finally got to picking it up from the mountain of promised books.

This book came to me as part of a bookrelay. Thank you Zmrzlina for fulfilling my wish! I am very excited to have this book and i hope to get to it soon.
I'll post more after reading it:-)
