Lucifer Book One by Mike Carey
2.0
I hate to say this but this is a DNF for me.
Don't get me wrong... I understand how its good but I'm just really not connecting to it as much as I wanted to. I love the Sandman series but it takes some fortitude to finish a series of that caliber. Like, no one sits down and reads The Odyssey in one sitting you know...
I enjoyed when Lucifer was snarky but there wasn't enough of it. I guess I was hoping this would be more episodic than it turned out to be. It has a wonderful lyrical feeling to the story telling but I just feel like they were trying to be too esoteric for there own good. I would have rather invested more in a clear plot rather than the poetry.
