I received a free book through Goodreads.

Let me start off by saying that I really did try to finish reading this book. However, it clearly wasn't suited to my preference. It's not to say that the book was awful or anything, it was a very fascinating read and brought up a lot of good points and theories, I just didn't have any desire to read it regardless of how I tried.

The book talked about the start of Trister's journey of self discovery and overcoming his weakness. For the most part, it felt like Trister was being offered to take the pills (just like in the Matrix), whether to continue to wander aimlessly or to face the truth and find himself. It really is quite a fascinating journey, especially when it involves Mayan warriors and being set in Guatemala. I enjoyed the use of symbolism and trying to decipher the meanings behind it in direct relation tot Trister. I also enjoyed how there are others there to guide and help Trister on his journey of self discovery, they certainly are interesting characters.

Overall, this story is quite fascinating. It may not have worked out for me but you should give it a try and determine for yourself. I hope one day I will go back and finish this book.… (mehr)
