Seventh Perfection

I received an e-ARC of this book in exchange for an honest opinion via Netgalley. First of all: This is a really special, I‘d even say unique, book. I had a hard time getting into it because of the second-Person POV. I was not sure if I liked the single-sided conversations the book consists of. But they make the book special and after giving it some thought, it is a cool way to tell a story! I would have loved to have learned more about the world and our main character. A lot of things are left unsaid. I am said that this is only a short novella.. All about the perfections would be predestined to be explored (and explained) more thorougly. A special book, really entertaining but one has to read slowly and let it all sink in to savour it fully, I think. I am a fast reader and did not heed my own advice... I want to know so much more about Manet/the Amanuensis, the God-King and the White Isle. This book is an intriguing mystery!
