The fun in this novel is in the chase. From the time Michael meets Towse and Aoife, there is not a moment where the enemy is looming behind them. Never being comfortable, plans are often made and adjusted on fly and the reader really feels this sense of spontaneity. As more time is spent with Towse and it becomes clear he is very slow and calculating in what he reveals, the reader can't help but have fun trying to figure him out. The dialogue is challenging at times and the style O'Loughlin uses leaves the reader struggling to keep up with who is speaking. The global travel in the book is fun, but sometimes the geographic descriptions of the areas were hard to understand.
The plot of THIS EDEN is exciting and the finish of the book is a suspenseful and fun, I just struggled to get their wit the clunky dialogue and detailed, and yet muttled, descriptions of all the different settings.
Thank you to Quercus Books/Riverrun, Ed O'Loughlin, and Netgalley for a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review!… (more)
