I just finished reading the modern classic and I was thoroughly blown away by Archer’s engaging writing style. The story was enthralling and moved at a fantastic pace.
You’re so captured reading the storyline of one protagonist, when it switches you feel yourself pulled away and want it to continue. Genuinely enjoyed the format.
I will say however that the ending was a bit anticlimactic for me because I saw the “twist” coming from a mile away, and I feel Archer could have a disguised it better. On more than one occasion, when Abel shows gratitude to the guy he originally thought gave him the loan to buy out the hotels, he acts surprised. Combined with the fact that William repeatedly said that he backed him to succeed, it was quite obvious.
Anyway, what are your thoughts on the book? It’s a 4.5/5 for me personally.
