The Spires of Denon

A very pleasant novella about discovery, ambition, greed, deception, misunderstanding and revelation. The world is striking and well described, though some details and phenomena are not explained by the end of the work. The characters are simply but clearly drawn, and the mystery plays out between the several protagonists. A dedicated puzzle-solver may divine the solution to the mystery well before the conclusion, but there remain surpising nuances to the story and characters right up to the end.
