I loved this book! It was a very off-beat story with odd characters, I thought it was great.

such a cool story!
can't wait to read the others in the trilogy. I was torn between reading it fast to see what would happen next, and savoring the details. In the end I ripped through it too fast and will have to read it again.

Technically classified as detective fiction, it is a little different that Sherlock Holmes, but an interesting read, nonetheless.

Nominated for the Edgard, but not a pure mystery--first of three part trilogy.

A well-written, but very different book. The back cover mentions Kafka. I liked the book, but still am not totally sure what happened.
