This book is very different and out there, making it the kind of book where it has to be 'your cup of tea'. Personally I wasn't the biggest fan of this book. It was nice to read something a little different from my usual crime novels, but can't say I would read this again. I did find it a little confusing in places, as the novel seemed to going around in circles, rather than progressing. The cover of this book is very beautiful and I liked the feel of the book in my hands, so on that front I can say it fit the bill. However, I wish the storyline had been as good as the cover was. For those wanting something a bit fantasy, alien like and frankly a bit bizzare, then this is the book for you! So go ahead and give it a go!
