brian_childs 's review for:
Shadow & Claw
by Gene Wolfe
This book reminded me a lot of Little Nemo in Slumberland in that each chapter was a new fantastical expansion to the world often with new characters introduced who weren't seen or heard from again. I really enjoyed it for a while, but by halfway through I was ready for things to start adding up to some kind of meaningful progress and I eventually gave up.
The main character, who has a great premise, also got less and less interesting as the book went on. Perhaps I should have stuck it out, some very prominent authors and publications sing it's praises, but ultimately I did not have the will power to power through.
