First of all, hello everyone. I've just finished reading this one and i must say that i really enjoyed it, I simultaneously started playing Planescape: Torment and it has something in common with the first part of the book. I mean the view that our world is just a decoy meant to deceive us and that death is the release in general. I found it very pessimistic to be honest, i believe that even though we all die we can do something that matters, shape our world even if only a little and that's what i liked later in the book- enjoying little things that make living great, small friendly gestures, setting sun etc. I also agree with the look on arrogance- that i find quite important cause it was a bit of a problem for me. From my own experience i can tell that you can't make use of your skills if you feel superior because of them. So overally i think the book was great, made me think about myself a little and that's what i find important. Waiting on your feedback :)
