Crackpot Palace by Jeffrey Ford

5.0

Jeffrey Ford, how I adore you. You have never let me down, you never disappoint. Sometimes I wonder where the hell you're going with a story, but wise from experience I lean back and enjoy the ride, and it always ends up somewhere unexpected and wonderful. You are unpredictable, but not whimsical. I trust you completely. This is more than I can say for most of your collegues, who lure me in with false pretences and then leave me dissatisfied. Not you. You always follow through. You sweep me up and guide me through your sad and terrifying and hilarious universe and then return me safely home, giddy and glowing (though the mummified saint's foot made me a little nauseous). Please don't ever leave me.
