Fantastic!

Sadly, I can't distinguish between my excitement over the fantastic literary qualities of this story and the fact that I finally finished (the unabridged version). ( )

I was hoping that I'd like this novel and actually finish it. What a great surprise to have actually loved it! ( )

I enjoyed this book more than i expected. It kept my interest as well as most modern books, although there were a lot of slow, repetitive parts. But I read somewhere that he got paid by the word.

If you want a real review, there are, I'm sure, hundreds of them, so I won't attempt to compete with them. I'll just say I'm glad I read it after all these years. ( )
