I was until I got a bit over half way through it and funbobby kept popping up in my head. Appears a bit psychologically driven. Anyway, on the last couple chapter, so far can't bring myself to read it, wondering if he goes back inside and dies in the sand pit, everyone always wants the main character to come out a hero, so hopefully he goes back in and finds a way to kill the critter and survives, don't know how that will conflate with him being part of the future or the past or the others either, and no spoiler alerts.
