Hey I'm reading this as well. Whats your issue with it? I get thats theres a ton of info/societies/people etc being thrown at you at once, but I'm enjoying the characters of Belbo et al. Where abouts are you? I'm nearly done Tiferet

>The Name of the Rose

I tried to read that. It was well written, it truly was. But by page five, after dozens of long-winded, meandering sentences, I had to give up.

My parents read that to me when I was an infant. How abused was I?

I'm almost at the end of Geburah, so a bit behind you. The Garamond trio and Lorenza Pelegrini have just arrived at Belbo's natal city of ***.

I guess my main issue of it is that it goes absolutely fucking nowhere. I guess The Name of the Rose also suffers from this as >>9898874 pointed out, but I'm into Medieval history and actually craved the passages about different religious sects, the franciscan order and the power struggle between the king of France and the Church.

But unlike 'The Name of the Rose' there's still no plot in sign. Literally nothing has happened.

If that information is even partially true, they meme'd you hard.

It's absolute unbearable, OP. Just drop it, I know I did after 100 pages.

As someone who enjoyed playing/reading through the Zero escape series, will I enjoy reading Foucalt's Pendulum?

It's picks up a bit. I've enjoyed it so far because I like the esoteric references once they start putting the pieces together (or so they think...) It really gets good. I have no idea why he introduces the Colonel so late, when in the synopsis makes it seems he comes in on the outset. Then again that's just me, good luck anon
