I enjoyed the book a lot, though I thought the ending was a little weak/abrupt.  In any case, I can definitely recommend the book to anybody interested in fiction.For those who do not know it, there is another story called "Gorinthian" by the same author.  It has the same characters in it and the first 20 pages or so will seem so familiar you'll wonder whether it is indeed the same story but from a slightly different perspective.  However, for whatever reason, the author has decided to write a second book with the same characters but in a slightly different universe. For example, rather than a single chime above the hall, here there are four chimes.  And a bit more disconcerting -- the characters do not appear to be vegetarians in the second book. And the history of events is repeated somewhat in both books, but it is different in each book even though it is describing the same event.  It just seems weird and a little jarring to read one of these stories after the other.  They are both good reads and if you liked the one you'll probably enjoy the other, as much for the story itself as for the differences between them.  Maybe this is what "Mirrors of the World" means...
