Houdini is a fun presence, but overall this is just a bit of a mess. Maybe I should have trimmed my expectations since Lidster can be such a good writer, this one is one of his weakest one easily. The Pace is all over the place and doesn’t really work much for me. The whole Story feels very generic and just a bit of nothing. It was written fine, but I must admit how 11 is portrayed here reminds me of the worst writing of 11, where he is just oversimplified into a mad man. Possibly I am a bit mean, but this really didn’t do anything for me.
