"I was unsure of what this one would be like and I am glad that it was done in four parts, as I don't think i could have stood it being the same characters throughout. However, having the different sections did stop much in the way of a story line from developing, so in the end the book just seemed somewhat pointless. I quite liked the fourth, sci-fi part though."
