I have found myself really struggling to get through this book. After reading the first impression of Piranesi I was really excited to have been given the chance to read another of the author's book instead. When reading the blurb I was really excited as this sounded exactly like the type of reading I'd enjoy.

When I initially received the book I was intimidated by the mass size of it. Whilst reading through the book it is apparent that the size may well be excessive and the book could have been condensed down a bit more.

Although I haven't completely finished this book I will continue on and give it the full chance it deserves, but I do not hold out high hopes as of yet. Being a slow reader possibly does not help in this case. I will certainly update my review if my opinion changes if I manage to get myself through the rest of the book.

The cover of the book is fabulous and what I would expect.

I do feel guilty for giving a star reading as this does not reflect the true rating of Piranesi.
