Thoughts

I found this one a bit of a disappointment, if I’m honest, but only because I couldn’t follow the twists and turns, the who’s who of spies and secret agents and super villains. The trouble with having a protagonist that doesn’t know who he is, is that it becomes quite an ungrounded story, with wild theories flying around. I found it difficult to know where I was at any given time.

Having said that, it’s great to get an insight into the mind of someone who discovers horrifying things about himself. Who figures out gradually that he knows how to do super spy things, military style procedures, and says all kinds of things without knowing why.

Fascinating but confusing.
