Review of 'The redeemer' on 'Goodreads'

I found myself getting increasingly annoyed with this book. Another reviewer already mentioned the “bad confusion” that made it hard for me to really get into the story.

I also didn’t like the large cast of characters. The plot is quite involved and because of that there’s just no time to get to know all these people. They remain cardboard characters. More confusion. :(

I will say that the plot was interesting and original, though. It’s the main reason I finished this book.
