The writing was great and the mystery was excellent. I did have trouble keeping up with all of the characters and names.

The Tokyo Zodiac Murders – kita akan disambut dengan surat wasiat yang ditulis Heikichi seorang seniman di bagian awal. Lewat surat tsb., Heikichi menjelaskan bagaimana seluk beluk kehidupannya, keluarganya, perjalanannya, sampai ambisinya untuk membuat Azoth (
Aku menemukan kalau cerita yang diangkat cukup unik. Bagian surat wasiat membuatku lebih mengenal Heikichi juga perjalanannya. Aku juga dibuat amazed karena cerita di sini banyak membahas tentang zodiak. Ya, gak dalam artian yang menjustifikasi zodiak ini begitu zodiak itu begini. Terus juga di beberapa bagian juga terdapat ilustrasi denah serta korban-korban dari kasus yang terjadi.
Sayangnya, aku kerap ngerasa lost dan bingung karena pembahasannya yang fokus ke hal lain. Misal di bagian pertengahan ngomongin Sherlock Holmes. Meskipun begitu, pengalaman membacaku untuk buku ini cukup menyenangkan walau banyak pusingnya. Bolak-balik lihat catatanku yang isinya tokoh-tokoh dalam cerita ini saking banyaknya.

While I didn’t guess the correct culprit, I was able to get where Shimada was going. It was pretty satisfying to be even half-way right.
I did get lost in the discussions of longitudes and latitudes. The little diagrams where a nice way to give visuals to some of the more complex/wordy explanations. So I wasn’t totally lost and able to piece some of the clues together.
