Picked up this book. It seemed interesting. Then I read the first chapter and the characters already seem so incredibly flat. With some character descriptions it is as if you watch a shit hollywood movie that uses these movie-techniques (evil music tune, bad guy in shadowy room) to show that this or that guy is good or evil. It's been some time since I read a novel like that. This seems like some 19th century Dan Brown novel. Perhaps that in itself makes it worth reading, I don't know, if it is, let me know. For now I'm back to George Elliot. Bye.
