World-building takes dedication, and Walter Moers' Zamonia series is an impressive world. Almost every other page of The 13 1/2 Lives of Captain Bluebear (the first book in the series) describes a new, bizarre creature. The 703 pages are a bit daunting, and it took me several tries to get past the first 60 (I was only 9, though). When I did succeed, I can remember reading the last page and thinking,"Wow!" The 13 1/2 Lives of Captain Bluebear does what it says on the tin--it follows the first 13 1/2 lives of Bluebear. Each life is like an episode with a new set of circumstances, secondary characters, and outward goals. Two of my favourite lives are: Life Number 11, where Bluebear is trying to find a way through a bollogg's brain (bolloggs have the power to remove their heads and live--this head appears to have been left behind on the edge of the Demerara Desert...) with the help of a 'bad' idea and the hindrance of insanity, and Life Number 2, in which Bluebear tries to fit in with some hobgoblins (panic-loving creatures created when a will-o-the-wisp comes into contact with Zamonia graveyard gas). What works: Although each life is very different, Bluebear has the same inner goal throughout the story--to find a place where he belongs--which helps concrete the plot. The creativity is mind-blowing, and the rich story really gives you an idea of what living in Zamonia would be like. What I would change: There are a lot of details. While these details are absolutely fascinating and mostly important, there are parts where they slowed the story down and made me want to skim ahead to where the action started again.

Gary writes in a way that allows me to feel his compassion, his regret and his love. Beyond the band and the 80's, he writes of the importance of strong family relationships. For example, his "muse" gives him a book. (p.169) "She gave me a gift. I wanted to tell my two rivals but kept it a secret between us. It was a book. I read it as though she were reading it to me. It slipped beneath my skin and the words bubbled up inside, percolating through me. I would send it back in a song." Tony's voice was so strong that his producer made him sing lying down during a recording session. Still too strong, so he covered him with a Turkish rug. (p. 156) Gary states that the quest for being accepted among entertainers is a fruitless endeavor (p. 232) "Unfortunately, this world has inner sanctums within inner sanctums, and threading your way through the temple of celebrity while holding on to your trousers of self-respect is nigh impossible. He considers Through the Barricades the "best piece of music we would ever make." (p. 243) He had a difficult time letting the band take it. He had created it and wanted to control every aspect. Finally, he walked around town while Tony sang. "Tony gave the most incredible vocal he'd ever sung, and claimed the song not only for himself, but for the whole band." The creative process is tricky. You know what it can be in your head, but the unveiling is difficult. (p. 173)In my head is how it could sound with the band playing, but as it's impossible to relay with just one instrument and a voice, I attempted to describe it. . . it's always the same experience: as if I were summoning the courage to tell someone for the first time that I loved them, desperately hoping that they felt the same way too." Regarding Gary's son, Finlay, he writes (p. 294)". . . building a one-to-one relationship gives me more joy than anything I've done before."
