Title: Entertaining but a bit tragic
Review: Throughout the story, the author has been very successful in holding suspenses and build up reader's expectations and climaxes. With the use of famous artworks, description of Rome's architecture and Galileo's work, the story becomes very interesting and substantial. His description of the hero and heroin are also fabulous; their warmth and faith in each other brings out the bright side of human nature, which is such a big contrast to the coldness of Kohler and the assassin. What surprises me is the sudden change of Camerlango Carlo Francesco. Although the change bring us with a big twist and irony which is needed for the development of plot, as reader, I must say I am unprepared for such a drastic change. As such I am quite uncomfortable after reading the truth of the story due to the tragic ending. Afterall, if you are not too serious with the message of the book, you will find it enjoyable and recommendable to read.
