I think one of the previous reviews has hit the nail on the head - it would have been better as a short story.None of the characters really grow on you, and I am scratching my head as to the reason why.  The writing wasn't bad in any way, but the story just limped along and didn't really come alight.  By the time I was 80% through, I started to skim read, just to get through it.  Something I just never do.  The opening chapters did offer promise, but it then became dragged out, and the ending didn't really make you gasp or feel there was a worthwhile conclusion or climax.I feel bad for not giving a better review, as it is apparent a lot of time went into the writing of the book.  Sadly it was perhaps a good idea, but was stretched beyond what would have otherwise been a good short read.
