It was different, that's for sure. Different from everything I have ever read. But being different doesn't mean being special. It was a quick read, but lukewarm. With too many repetitions of words and phrases; I understand why, but that doesn't mean it wasn't annoying. And that end... Pffff

Piranesi is one of those characters. His open, eager attitude, coupled with a scientific precision and an utter humility is incredibly charming. I would gladly have read his journal entries about his explorations of The House even without the mysterious plot simmering in the background.
