My Review:
5 *****
I think this is the first book from this author that I've actually guess the 'who did it?' thing he has going on with every book. I was teetering on the edge between two people after about 60%. This though, didn't dampen my spirit for the amazing book it was at completion.
It's gripping, it's strange and Oh do invigorating. I loved the characters and each of their roles, I loved the deviance of the story once all was revealed and found it all to be the work of a genius.
I admit though, when I got to halfway and stopped reading for the night I had a nightmare about what could happen... that has never happened before when reading and I applaud the author for doing that. (even though when I awoke, I was positively terrified!)
This author will forever surprise me, keep my on the edge and turn my brain into a pile of mush. I love this book and knows others will to.
