(probably not, but just in case)

How significant do you think the obstacles to the book title are?  The
hang(ed)man's game and the spider by the mirror certainly suggest a
specific individual to me (and he happens to have a saint's name). 
Didn't an earlier puzzle have a lily which grew when a potion was
dropped on it?  Could this all be happenstance?
