    The Operandi
  

*by V***T on Reviewed in the United States on November 2, 2017*

No spoilers ahead.In a working class English neighborhood between Cranbury Avenue & Westwood Road next door to the Fox & Hounds Pub there is a long, twisted brick alley known as Slade Alley. If you follow the maze-like alleyway...if you look real hard...you will find a small black iron door in the brick wall. If you enter that small metal door you will see an unaccountably vast terraced garden belonging to a mansion known as Slade House. If you find your way into Slade House you will meet the residents but by then it is already too late for you.There has been a rash of missing persons throughout the years last seen going into this alley.I paid more for this book than I am usually willing to fork over (11.99 at Amazon) but it was well worth it & a great Halloween read. It was a welcome, original change to the same old, same old vampires, werewolves & zombies. Several times I thought I had the plot figured out but was surprised to the very end. Try it, it is different.

    Good idea. Not too well executed.
  

*by J***S on Reviewed in the United States on September 14, 2019*

What was cool:The two co-protagonists, and the linear storyline, were developed through the first person perspective of several narrators who come and go.What was also cool:Mitchell makes a contract with us, right from the beginning, that this will not be a "and then it was all a dream" ending, with ambiguous "was this real or not?" cop out endings.What was not so cool:Plot development seemed forced. Mitchell seemed to commit far too much to the "narrator as a witness" approach, to make protagonists mysterious. Still, in order to explain the "mystery" and show "conflict" between the co-protagonists, the narrator (and reader) had to witness "evil genius/mas scientist/james bond villain" conversations.To keep us "hooked" to the plot, we did not get a conflict resolution on each chapter, just foreshadowing that something worse was coming.So then we had to go through another round of another "first person narrator" development (boring stories) before we ended up in the same place to listen to another villainous conversation and get another clue and more foreshadowing.By the third round, you just want your soul to be eaten and ended once and for all.I guess Mitchell had a good idea with the co-protagonist linear storyline. He also was onto something  when making us witnesses through the eyes of several narrators.The reading drags on due to:* a need to be mysterious and supernatural, but at the same time provide us with explanations;* too much commitment to the first person narrator point of view;* a feel that narrator development was manufactured and forced at the service of the writing strategy, not the writing strategy being used at the service of the storyline;* Chapters were templates. You could read the first chapter and last chapter, and the last 4 pages of each chapter in between. You would still know what happened.Good idea. Not too well executed.A short story was enough. There was no need to extend this into a short novel made of many short stories.

    Mitchell in a new genre
  

*by J***A on Reviewed in the United States on November 6, 2016*

Anything David Mitchell is amazing, at least so far in my opinion. However, this is slightly different as it is his first foray into the "literary, scary fairytale" genre. Because this genre is prone to spoilers, I won't say much. I recommend it if you are into an interesting story, a little spooky, with a number of interesting characters. Mitchell is a master of the language, so it will be better written than most things like it. Also, this story ranges over several decades and about a dozen characters, but because Mitchell's work can span centuries and contain 100s of characters (seriously), everything is easy to understand, and comes together nicely at the end.If you are a Mitchell fan, this is an interesting, relatively easy entry into a new genre. If you like spooky tales, this is a good one, that unfolds slowly, so it'll keep you interested. If you just like good books, it's worth it. Highly recommended.
