Re: Starbook was fascinating. Danae al'Thor Send a noteboard - 15/01/2010 04:03:55 PM
It isn't a lot, mind you, but I have enjoyed what I have read. ;)


It took me some time to warm up to it - I had the same problem with The Famished Road. Starbook is an allegory, a parallel, and intangible myffic narrative. I'd pick tFR over it anyday, but this was definitely a worthwhile read. It's fluid, and very - aetheric. If that is a proper description that can be used to describe novels. It should be.
