Otts reviewed Book of Doors by Gareth Brown
A book for every reader … and plot need
3 stars
That there are books of and for just about everything is a neat conceit. On the one hand, of course. On the other, The Book of Pain, Luck, Illusions, etc. grant you control over these things. This relatively simple premise becomes quite complicated, overly so: time-travel, Books for anything the plot requires (Speed, Memories, Joy), ignored the constraints that every magical system needs. Entertaining though.
