"I'm enjoying just enough of this for my brain to be critiquing it pretty intensely. There's a lot of characters and most of them aren't accessing anything sharp/interesting within their archetype to be worth having access to their thoughts.
Here's who we should be following: Tattersail, Paran, Quick Ben, Rake, Kruppe. Anyone else we should just see them through the eyes of these five." — Jul 17, 2026 07:16AM

"Finally getting a sense that the text isn't interested only in how cool and awesome it is to be a holy warrior, so that's nice. Overall Part 2 was missing the character I like most, and is too interested in the incredibly slow origin of what are to be the coolest holy warriors of them all." — Feb 19, 2024 10:04PM

"Okay, now this thing is starting to speak. I've heard criticisms about the way Murakami writes female characters, and at least in this they appear to all be enigmas instead of people, but more and more it's becoming clear that it's the character's problem and not the author's, in this novel at least." — Feb 05, 2024 07:16PM
