| If you care not to think when you read a book, or at least not put much thought into it, then you'll not like this book. Peter Straub weaves tale upon tale, and at times he's a little difficult to follow, and on at least a dozen ocassions I had to go back and refresh my memory about characters, places and events. But it's definitely worth the trouble. His style of writing is absolutely wonderful and enjoyable, and I have relished every sentence in this book. Straub is a rare commodity, and with this being only the second book I've enjoyed of his (the other being 'Ghost Story' which was excellent) I look forward to getting into all his work. |
