把日本禪學、佛教融入推理小說裡面，把故事說得絲絲入扣。

每次讀京極夏彥的書都會體認到我在知識上的匱乏，所以每次都甘拜下風。

看完了这本书其实我最大的感触是一种现代社会里对于祛魅的杯葛，存在一种超自然的认知与其说是反智，在这张的时代里，我觉得它是一种敬畏

最喜欢的一部百鬼夜行。不同的和尚有不同的世界，有趣。榎木津一开始就展示了他的推理力，还把小关背下山。诡计单纯，但是暗示给得够，最终意象很有趣

睡前读得我好困... 但是故事还是很合理的

京極小說至此, 頁數已經變得很龐大了. 看完上冊, 已經搞不清楚人物之間的關係. 不過結尾的部份仍舊是很精彩. 看來這本應該要看兩次, 不然就是一開始時, 要準備一張紙, 把出場人物都寫下來, 並畫出之間的關係.
