The Western Wind

This was a real disappointment for me.

I had no issue with the reversed timeline structure, save: it simply seemed to be a device to hide the fact that there is no mystery, or complex tale here; it is not a true reversed timeline because having read the final chapter (about chapter 26) I had to go back and remind myself of how chapter 6 concluded in order to fit it all together.

I found the writing repetitive and, eventually, rather boring, which is why it took me a lot longer to read this book than it should have done.
