Query: what a terrible excuse for a book

someone recommended this book to me, knowing that i enjoyed eco's novels (esp. foucault's pendulum); needless to say, i have not taken anything seriously that that person has said to me since i finished reading this pitiful 'book'.don't be fooled by some idiot recommending this to you, it is a very very very very poor novel.
