This is the strangest, most thought-provoking piece of speculative fiction I’ve read this year.
It was extraordinary, and a tiny bit unsettling; the sort of book that has you glancing behind you while you’re reading it.
I’d love to tell you what the phenomenal concept behind it, the strange and tortured characters you’ll meet along the way, and the extraordinary nature of the threat they’re facing. … I could tell you, but then in typically dull fictional fashion that no way reflects this outstanding book, I’d have to kill you.
To give you some idea of how much I enjoyed this book, I downloaded the first chapter, read it, then abandoned the book I was currently reading so I could crack on with this one. It is that good. (Though I did go back and finish the first one.)
Stop whatever you’re doing and read it now.
