We really loved Trussoni's book, the Puzzle Master, so we wanted to read this one too. Mike Brink experienced a head injury as a teen and developed Sudden Savant Syndrome. He can solve the hardest puzzles. Sees patterns everywhere.
For me, this book didn't work because of the numerous Japanese goddesses and emperors. I stopped at pg 90. But "L" listens to audio and she finished the book. She liked it, but there was way too much "filler." Listening to audio makes it easier to push thru a book with technical words (cultural gods, language) and filler. For me, I read print, and if a book doesn't keep me turning pages, sometimes I just give up.
We expect there may be another Mike Brink novel from Trussoni (similar to Dan Brown's "Robert Langdon" books). We'll probably read it, but I'll try to get the audio.
