What a crazy, insane,  well-thought-out book. This was like a big, confusing game of clue. The only reason this doesn't have 5 stars is because it was a bit too much to follow with as many characters as this novel supports; having to make sense of the cast and their roles was tedious. Still an enjoyable read, nonetheless.
