slow-paced
Rich characters and surprising development points make this a quick and engaging read. I enjoyed catching the quick, seemingly offhand allusions that pepper the narrative, and I appreciate a well-placed joke that isn't immediately followed by an explanation. Looking forward to reading the rest of the series.

What? That was my reaction throughout the book. It took me a good one hundred pages to get into the book and start enjoying it. It was so confusing in the begining and the moment I started to understand what I was reading , ten pages later I would wonder what was happening.
I found the plot really interesting and intriguing. The way the whole thing turned out, that it wasnt real... damn. Did not expect it to be Merc. It is so cool to think that you can imagine and build worlds and people and stuff.
Did not like the releationship between Halloween and Simone. Or whatever that was. I always thought it should be Fantasia. And to learn that Pandora likes him... what? Also didnt like that all of Hal's friends died, like, come on!
I really liked the character of Halloween. He was fun, cynical and just... ah!
When I learned that there are three books I was a little shocked because the ending is a perfectly good one for the book and I cant imagine what can be done without ruining the book.
Overall, I liked it but I dont think that I would be continuing the series.

Writing reminded me overwhelmingly of Zelazny's Amber books...after Merlin takes center stage. I'll try again later, but it was infernally pompous and obviously-paced for me right now.
wonderfully imaginative this novel blends dystopian and sci fi in a brillant way. couldn't put it down
