The concept is intriguing, but I found my mind wandering away from the story within a few chapters. I gave up and filed the book away to read in the future. I really want to "get" it... maybe some other time.”

The story beginning reminded me of a character focused, black and white, movie you can have playing in the background on a Sunday afternoon. This is not what I want from a book and i gave up after page 30. There was just too much dialogue between a limited number of characters using language from the 1930, which is when it was written.”

It started excellently, then disappeared into an extended display of law-based jargon and bureaucratic nonsense. Which is probably actually the whole point. ”
