Review: Couldn't get into it

The premise of the story drew me quickly in -a young man looking for a job accepts to work for a global company that looks super-powerful, but also obscure as to the services it provides. A great setting for all things supernatural.However, the author 'forces' the world-building through the silliness of the lead character, who happens upon strange circumstances in his first day at work but doesn't back off, he instead jumps in like a five-year old fumbling an unknown object. And, using phrases like 'a chill ran up his spine', she is trying to imply that something awkward is going on, but fails to weave the mystery necessary in the beginning.The irrationality of the lead character -Martin Cunningham- eventually put me off, despite the fact that there were other fantasy elements I approve of.Recommended to readers with a knack for absurdness and silliness/naivete along with their fantasy.
