great fun! the amount of attention clarke pays to the details of this world is really wonderful. the pastiche-y style of the prose is brilliant. the characters are varied and interesting, and being at emotional remove from strange and norrell works quite well for what the characters are like (and the overall style). certainly felt like a long book but at no point is it dull or unenjoyable.

I loved and hated this book. At times it seemed to drag, at other times I couldn't put it down. I think people will either love or hate this book. Sadly I am of no help.

Its a mixed bag for me with this book. The alternate history and lore within the world of Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell is great! Some of the characters are thoroughly enjoyable! The time it took for me to get invested into the book and those characters is not. When the first 100 pages put me off reading any more of this book, it makes it hard to recommend you read all 846.
Omg! It kept going! This book came to me highly recommended, so I was eager to pick it up. I didn't really get interested in this book until the last 10 chapters, but even then it wasn't worth it.
