I love love love Michael Chabon's genre work. His science fiction, mysteries, fantasy, historical fiction, but this--- left me cold. Couldn't somebody have flown or time traveled or become a king? I didn't *like* these characters. I like his characters in his genre fiction-- a lot. I like these characters very much as played by actors in the movie based on this book. I was really looking forward to this book, so that it didn't work for me disappointed me. Oh well. I still really, really like his genre fiction.
