Turning the Hourglass by M.J. Keeley, Matthew Keeley

3.0

I was a quarter of the way through the book before I started getting interested. Our protagonist, Dyrne, is very busy being paranoid and guilty, trying desperately to remain uninteresting and not stand out. It seems he spends most of the story trying to discern how best to make himself miserable to atone for his past sins. And he finally succeeds in both righting old wrongs and isolating himself entirely from anybody who might form a support network.
The style reminded me of "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep".

A tragic event. An obsession to make right. A price to pay.
