I so wanted to like this book more, as the beginning was fantastic and it captured me. But about 60% through I started to drift, and my attention was waning.

I did however like the intertwining of mythology with Victorian times. That was great spin.

The narrator was fantastic and he brought Minos to life, as well as other characters. But for me, the story lasted too long.

Stephen King

DID NOT FINISH: 43%

I can’t take away that King is great author but fuck, I can’t deal with the drivel and the slow moving plot. His books aren’t for me. I’m done.
