Didn’t Like It1 of 3 members found this review helpful“This is a very good book up until the end. It's the story of an artist who gets pulled out of our reality into neighboring realites. He is accompanied by his pan-sexual ungendered love slave who can become anything he wants.

knitty for dr who wrote this review Friday, October 16 2009. ( reply | permalink ) Was this review helpful? Yes | No“Unfortunately, not all books are going to appeal to everyone. I've read many reviews about how people love this book, but as for myself, it was fairly grueling to get through. First and foremost, I had a hard time keeping people and places straight. Also, the plot line (in the best of descriptions I can muster) kinda bloomed slowly over time. There wasn't an obvious plot development in the whole story. To me as a reader, I kinda got what the author was trying to describe about 30 pages later after it was first introduced.
Written differently, I believe I could have enjoyed this book. The parts I did understand, I enjoyed, as well as the thematic elements, especially those nearing the end of the story. However, I'm a fan of "the guy gets the girl and happy ending" books, so this is not a story for me, and I freely admit that.”
“a work of art.”

It has all the elements of a good fantasy, and some horror for good measure. The imagery is vivid, the story is amazing, it's definitely worth buying. If you're anything like me you'll read it several times.”
