Done- liked it. Would not read it again, wish it was less back story and m ore story and more details on current investigations into the Voynich manuscript. Not fulfilling for me.

Not sure if something was lost in translation, but framing all the history of the manuscript with a fictional story felt very forced; nothing happened with the plot until the last chapter or so, and the info at times seemed rather random and out of sequence. It’s like the opposite of ‘weaving’ fact and fiction. Lots of tell instead of show, way too much exposition, maybe he should of just written a NF book.
The wikipedia page for the Voynich manuscript was fascinating though, 5 stars for whoever wrote that.
