There were a few times I stopped and though “what the hell did I just read?” in a way that was both slightly horrified and amazed at the same time.

The set-up is great and an amazing look at how cultures and civilization can shift. The different situations and stories that are followed and how they all connect and weave is some masterful storytelling (and one of my personal favorite plot devices).
