Can I say how much I ended up liking this book? I found it on Waterstones out of sheer luck, it had a sticker with a price on it, the boy at the teller didn't even know they had the book on the store. And I just got it because I was looking for some SF to read.
I was pleasantly surprised with the story. It didn't begin in any impressive sort of way. It actually seemed not a nice story at the beginning and then, Ron came in and it suddenly got interesting.
And then, almost half way through something else happen that I was definitely not expecting, but that made a whole lot of sense, and then it was... oh so much fun.
It felt a bit like 'Inception' (a good kind of Inception), it was a very messy story, again, the good kind of messy. And when I had 20 pages left it seemed that Ron's story was just beginning, and I was wondering exactly how he intended to give it a conclusion with 20 pages left, and with all this stuff going on that had just started 10 pages ago.
It was quite exciting, and I was quite happy with how it all fell into place.
And I ended up really liking it. A nice story, nice change from my regular SF books.

Somehow I'd managed to read every other Mage novel back in the day. This one didn't do much for me, so I suppose it was all for the best.

For me, it was an interesting history at the beginning not a remarkable good history but it was fine, the hole plot of the theocracy and this good guy been an inquisitor, well that couldn´t last, but in an amazing way it didn´t follow that way of thinking but a complete different plot came out when Ron Church appeared and from then on, it was such an impressive book! The collision of universes and a thin line between realities, the God morals and the creator been such an entity. I really liked it, it also fed my paranoia with Irene and the Big picture plot.
