I wasn't sure what this would be when I bega reading it, but I wound up quite liking it :) Although I a only vaguely familiar with the source material in question (I've never even seen the 1996 film version) I still enjoyed this.

Not knowing where this was going, and unable to really pick up on any clues (dates, languages, etc), I still wanted to keep on reading to the end, not necessarily for any sort of big payoff, but simply because I enjoyed the characterisation of the narrator in conjunction with the supernatural implications.

I tend to enjoy stories of people who feel they are crusading, or operating for the benefit of the greater good, and the way they feel about themselves and the world. This one is is made more interesting by the fact that the protagonist seemed unable, or unwilling(?) to die as a normal human would. I was initially wondering about some sort of reincarnation, or maybe even a sacred order.

I was thinking I wanted to know more about the actual documents described, where they were found, when, and by whom. But adding these details would likely have slowed the pace, and possibly distracted from the main narrative with tertiary information.

For folks who know the story, I think this will be a thought provoking read, and for someone like myself, who isn't very familiar with the lore, it was also pretty engaging. A knowledge of history and a sense of author research comes through which is nice, and as usual, your spelling, grammar, format, style, and clarity are impeccable.

This is a quick read, and pretty unique as far as stories on this wiki go, Ive very glad I read this :)
