A review by konstantinar
The Eye Collector by Sebastian Fitzek
3.0
Although Fitzek is one of my favorites, I struggled a lot with this book. If it was written by someone else it would be more of a 2/5 but I can't give a 2 to a Fitzek book so I'll go for 3/5.
At the start, it seemed pretty interesting and I could grasp it quickly. I was a bit turned off by Alina's power, not my cup of tea, and I had a bad feeling that a lot of things would go long unexplained because of this. (And they did)
Long story short, reaching almost the middle of the book I found myself struggling to read it, it just could not pick my interest anymore... The ending was powerful and fast paced but I'd rather have a slower and a bit more predictable ending than have almost half a book that goes insanely slowly. I don't think I'll be reading II, not in the foreseeable future at least.
