I read about 30% of the book and decided it wasn't for me.

This book carefully blurs the lines of possible and impossible. My mouth literally dropped open more than once. Seriously? I was hooked and willing to buy into the most unlikeliest of stories. The tale is intriguing, and the prose is incredibly rich. Things are painfully explained in the most delightful, detailed fashion. I enjoyed re-reading passages, looking up interesting words, and noting quotes, to truly understand (in my own way) and appreciate the complex story - compared to my usual speedy reading methods, this was like taking a luxurious bath in a whirlpool of words. I am not sure I could recommend this to everyone - but if you are looking for something different, curious and don't mind a slower pace, truly, it was a treat.

I read this book several years ago and remembered liking it. I knew there was a lot of inappropriate sexual content, but in the years since I read it, I am no longer able to stomach it.

It's interesting, but I don't know that it's 900+ pages worth of interesting. May come back to it.
