A real pleasure to read  |
|
A real delight to read. Imaginative, rich, complex and epic. A rare breed of sci-fi/fantasy crossover set against a beautifully realised world full of contrasts and with a real narrative drive. Unlike most fantasy this book is also very well written, avoiding cliches and tired set pieces. This book should be rated alongside Dune.

Huge world, great story  |
|
The book opens with the main character, Valentine, remembering nothing of his past and so learning, along with the reader, about the world he is on (Majipoor) and who he really is. Majipoor the planet is an intriguing mix: vast size, many different intelligent species, deep history, strange methods of government and a 30-mile high mountain. It forms the background against which Valentines human story unfolds.
