If we were holograms, how would the photons interact with our eyes causing us to be able to see everything yet nothing else in the universe at that time interacts with us.

That might be better. No need for anyone to take it over, sounds like a plus to me.

I felt the same as you in a lot of ways.

I thought the book was well written, which has to count for something with so many rubbish books about nowadays but I agree with you about the ending. It seemed like the author had an idea for the main part of the story but didn't know how to end it so they came up with a very contrived way to finish the book.

I didn't mind the magic part although I agree with you on the idea of a benevolent master even though he'd possibly sentenced his protégé to death being a bit daft.

On the whole though I quite liked the book, it's just a shame they couldn't come up with a better ending.
