Central Station by Lavie Tidhar

2.0

This book reads to me like a more lyrical version of Necromancer. It is apt that it is named for its setting because Central Station is the most compelling part of the book, though we visit it for but a short time through a series of short stories that I think would have worked best apart rather than woven together as an afterthought. My biggest complaint would be the same complaint that I had for Necromancer-- that the characters are too alien, that I was never given much time to connect with them, that they fleet in and out of chapters like ghosts, somehow more intangible than the world they inhabit.
