Lexicon, by max barry part 1
So this is a weird one, in this book words are weapons and somehow religious themes are related into this world. Also I have a feeling that this is going to be something orwellian...
So we have 2 main characters we follow the first one introduced is will, so we will take this storyline first. He gets abducted in a bathroomstall and gets something stuck in his eye for some reason and he gets dragged out of the airport against his will
further he gets into a car anan attempt is made by an unknown force to stop his kidnappers by force (his girlfriend that was waiting for him at the airport crashes into their car with her own car) the rest of storyline revolves about how he is transported from one location to another.
Then secondly we have emily, a street girl who tricks people into giving her money by a cardtrick (she cheats) and a whole lot happens resulting in her being selected to go into a school/academy/institution. She has her troubles because she is still the cheater and almost gets thrown out of the institution for cheating on her entry exam.
But her storyline is mainly about finding out what it is what she was selected for, it appears that she is being trained to be some kind of witch with an arrangement of words. She discovers alot and seduces her best friend at that place to have sex with her and the guy kill himself over it.
I litereally have no idea what is going on, everything that I could have made out of the first part that there is some kind of conspiracy going on either against the school for these word wizards and witches or the goverment or both?
I still have no idea of this school is goverment run (tough it is hinted that it's not) or not or if the kidnappers of will are going trough a rebellion against this organisation because it does bad things or whatever. But what this chapter in my opinion does best is keeping the suspense in it.
My points? 8/10 for this part of the book.
