Very nice! I was immediately impressed, it almost sounded like some official movie soundtrack! Then, at 0:30, you switch to the 'main course', a mysterious and indeed kind of 'booky' theme. I do find each measure to be a tad bit too long, given that you end up barely hearing the music for a long time (you do improve on that at 1:02, by having a continuous part, and at 1:34 even more). But overal, the song matches the theme surprisingly well, and it was real nice to listen to. Congrats!

Thanks! My intention was to leave the main section very open and ambient, with lots of space between chords to build some anticipation, which, to me, felt like pondering, wondering, thinking, etc. But, I can definitely see how it could maybe be a little too open. Thank you for both the feedback, and for the praise:)
