Teodor Sebastian's Most Popular Reviews

(Mild spoilers ahead) I liked enough to read in one sitting, and the multiverse idea is captivating but... (there is always a but it seems). For an intelligent person that people around even describe as a genius, the main character acts dumb so it is a bit difficult to believe the story. Also, there are some flaws in the logical flow that again give a feeling of disbelief. For this reason, the book seems more like a thought experiment to explain the implications of a multiverse based on the branching idea (every decision can be a splitting point to multiple realities and the love of the main character becomes then a converging point). Either way, it is a worthwhile reading, is a standalone book (an extra star for this) and it makes you feel as much as it makes you think.

5 stars because, besides it is a good book, it ends, it has an ending good enough not trying to make you read a trilogy just to find closure.

A good written book but with characters that I don't like. It left me with a bitter taste and no desire to come back to its universe. At some point the main “hero” seemed to redeem himself just to become a child murderer (mild spoiler) beside a straight up murderer.

A good introduction to non-dual kashmir shaivism but with sometimes poor logic and repetitive and circular arguments. Some views differ from the mainstream opinions and the logic behind those is not very sound. Still a good book
