Firstly, I would like to say that the translation was very good, sometimes a book that has lost it's native voice does not come across as well but this did not feel as if I had to fight through the language.Secondly, this is not a literary masterpiece but a good old fashioned thriller that satisfies because of it's predictability but doesn't bore you unlike some others in this genre. At first I was annoyed that I was one step ahead and was almost shouting at them not to trust this person or that person. However the premise of the Lectors two different abilities kept me interested all the way through, it was a very clever idea that made me as a book lover wish I could possess. The descriptive writing was colourful and enticing in just the way the characters needed to express their powers in the strongest way.Enjoyable escapism. selalu sukaaa deh sama buku-buku seputar buku, perpustakaan, sejarah, dsb. baca ini bikin ga pengen beranjak dari awal sampai habis. menegangkan, seru, menarik. saya membayangkan perpustakaan Alexandria yang begitu besar, juga sejarahnya yang saya baru tahu. sayangnya, kenapa tentang Alexandria ini baru diceritakan di akhir-akhir dan terkesan tiba-tiba.untuk misteri konspirasinya, selalu bisa ditebak, pasti ada 'sekelompok orang' di belakang setiap peristiwa. ordo pencerahan menjadi biang kerok utamanya, dan ini sudah sering saya baca di novel-novel bertema konspirasi seputar ilmu pengetahuan.satu yang kurang pas saya rasa, fantasinya yang terlalu memukau alias berlebihan, terutama bagi saya yang memang kurang begitu suka fantasi-fantasi berbau magic, indera keenam, dan sejenisnya. tapi begitu pun, buku ini bukan tentang itu, hanya fantasianya saja yang liar.buku bisa menjadi senjata, bisa menjadi alat untuk menolong, tergantung di tangan siapa ia dipegang. satu hal, kenangan masa kecil kita saat dibacakan cerita keras-keras oleh orangtua, ternyata memang memberikan efek memori jangka panjang yang luar biasa bagi pembentukan karakter.review lengkap nyusul ya...

It was one of the most "meh" books in my entire life.
