Terrific
This is my third Kotaro Osaka after Bullet Train and The Mantis, and I’ve loved all of them. There’s a curious sense of tenderness under all the thrills and violence, and an interesting sense of morality and redemption in each of them - or perhaps I’m just projecting. Anyway this is another surprising, absorbing and convoluted yarn, well translated and brilliantly read/performed by Adam Sims. Highly recommended!

A great story and selection of voices
I loved bullet train and pre-ordered this as soon as I could and I wasn't disappointed. the story is a smooth ride and seemed to be over far too soon for me. I would have happily had more. The author is such a good storyteller.
As for the narrator, I went through a journey with him, just like on bullet train when i first listened to the sample before buying. With his general narration, i wasnt sure if i was going to manage to get to the end. However, if you have heard a small clip before buying and felt the same then please be reassured. The voices the narrator uses for characters bring them to life. He really is brilliant with the character work in my opinion.
Had to give it 5 stars...

Mind numbing !
I just could not finish this book, I tried several times. I was unable to be gripped by the novel, I may try a different book by this author but not for a while !!
