For a good part of the first half, I was convinced ice nine was not real? maybe that was the idea.
For at least 60% of my time reading this book, i was wondering if I was actively having a stroke. maybe that's what the author wanted too.

I can only describe this as absolute madness with maybe a moment or two of lucidity that evaporates quickly.

Trigger warnings for dated language, casual racism, and for extreme us american behavior (that's for those of you like me who get triggered easily by americans being americans)

Ei jätnud nii head muljet nagu slaughterhouse, aga siiski oli huvitav jutt, kuidas kirjanik püüab kirjutada raamatut mehest, kes aitas leiutada aatompommi, ning samas selle raamatus väljamõeldud religioonist räägib. Raamat kust on pärit elu hävitaja ice-9.

Absurd and silly and charming but I could have gone without all the slurs and stuff 
funny medium-paced

Cannot rate this less than 5. An absurd feast. Terrible and hilarious and just so witty. Would read again because there is so much to take away.

Unexpectedly funny
