One description I read is that the story is told in reverse order, which really does seem true. But I felt the ending/beginning was rather abrupt. I turned the page (on my kindle) and suddenly got the "see more by this author" message. Was not expecting the literal end of the book when it came.

As for the story itself, well, it felt like the story on the page was not the story I was there to read. I wanted to read about his "accident" and the RPG he created, and the reasons for the trial. But those seemed to be peripheral to a story about, well, just him living. That's not a good way to describe it, but not coming up with anything better.
