Title: I really wanted to like it...
Review: I had such high hopes for this book. I think I gave it a fair chance (I stopped on page 122). At 700 pages with a smallish type set, there is enough material here for a few books. Cantor's style of tangent-laden sentences, skipping through multiple time periods without much segue make for slow-going work. MANY different characters with similar sounding names and all with secondary names as well add to the confusion. Might pick this back up in the future if feeling more adventurous.
