The third Dan Brown book featuring Harvard symbologist Robert Langdon and, like his previous books ("Angels and Demons", "The Da Vinci code", "Deception Point" and "Digital Fortress" - the first two in that list also featuring Robert Langdon), I found it to be an entertaining enough read without being anything special.

I have to say, I also think that (one of) the supposed big reveals was actually pretty obvious from roughly 1/3 of the way into the story, which didn't really help ...

Seskis is a master at weaving her plot and creating twist after twist, and the ending was a sublime surprise that had been supremely disguised in the rest of the novel. I imagine that deception and secret keeping are amongst Seskis' talents! This is not just a story with a twist though, but handles emotion with empathy and artistry and I genuinely grew to care for and grieve with the characters. A great fun read that kept me page turning right to the end with gripping eagerness.

Fantastic Social Deduction/Deception game
My group has played this twice now, once with 5 players and once with 7. The more players seems to be a better option as this game scales higher better than lower.

Definitely a game where paying attention to your friends is paramount, and it can be extremely challenging to snuff out those pesky fascists.

Probable the most emotionally involved games we've played recently. So if you and your group enjoy some good natured personal conflict, this game is for you!

Friendships will be tested!
