What can I say? I did not dislike it. Much to my surprise. I did like that the horror aspect in this book was not a straight punch into your face, that it was very sublte, but constantly growing throughout the plot. It was a perfect crescendo, building up suspension up until the end (which btw was a complete surprise for me - although in retrospection it was the only logical end to it). I had some problems finding my way into the story at first, I can't really put my finger on why that was, maybe because it was so unlike everything I normally read, but once I allowed the story to get me - it got me and the largest amount of my read was done in one sitting. I liked the writing style, you can tell that the author is rather smart and intelligent, and even for a non-native speaker it was an easy, quick read. So in the end I am happy I gave End of time a chance. As I said, it was nothing like I normally read, but it was definitley an enoyable read, no book I would read again - but a book I would certainly recommend to anybody who enjoys the genre, I would even recommend it to people like me as well :-) =|:-}
