The characters are not sympathetic. Most of them in fact are unlikeable, including, and maybe especially, Wednesday. The ones we do like, like Samantha Black Crow and Chad Mulligan, come in and then go out. The main character, Shadow, put me in mind of The Chief in One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest. (The movie, not the book) People seem to like him, but he gets close to no one. His motivations are pretty much a mystery. The story is a dream state - a long, long dream.
