Interesting hard sci-fi about gene therapy as a means to world domination by a deluded scientist who sees himself as savior.

This is Morrison's masterpiece. The biblical and magical imagery, the symbols, the characters are exquisite. As always, it takes a lot of effort to get past the first chapter, but once your in, it's worth it.

If The Corrections has no redeeming characters, no sympathetic inmates, what should one make of Women in Love? Either way, Lawrence's merciless scalpel and light open dark hearts, callow souls and capricious intellects. The climax is a good one and the novel is reasonably gripping, perhaps because of the shallow nature of so many of the main characters. Class is Lawrence's pallet and he rarely used it to paint as nuanced a picture as this one.
One more after this but its not at my Library. Have to wait to finish the tril and truthfully its hardly worth it

** spoiler alert ** *Spoiler alert: Review of a sequel, contains info on the earlier book* Gears of the City is the sequel to Thunderer, a fantasy novel that was the author's debut. Both books are set mostly in a sprawling labyrinthine city (called Ararat) that is always changing. The main character, Arjun, sees a lot of these changes because in Thunderer, he gains the ability to walk through hidden "doors" that lead to different times and parts of the city. A lot of the places and time periods Arjun ends up in are roughly equivalent to a dirty Victorian-era city, and the novels have a distinctly steampunk quality. Arjun originally came to the city from a distant land to seek out a missing god of music that had inhabited his monestary and filled the local people with peace. He had many adventures in Ararat and saw many gods and their works, but he didn't find his god of music. Through his travels in the city, he learns that the mountain at the center of the city is a big mystery in every place and time, and begins to suspect that it holds the key to his god's disappearance. The problem is, the mountain makes people crazy. At the beginning of Gears of the City, Arjun has fled from the mountain, devoid of his memory. After meeting a prophetic talking Beast, he finds friends in the local area and begins to recover his memory and remember his mission. But he has started to care more about other people, especially Ruth and Marta Low, two sisters who rescued, hid, and healed him. This sometimes gets Arjun into trouble, as does the presence of a badly-organized police state and the increasing aggression of the mountain itself. Slowly, Arjun begins to unravel the mysteries of the mountain, the Low sisters, and his space-time travel mentor, Shay. Along the way, he gets involved with the adventures of the hilariously pompous libertine Brace-Bel and the third Low sister. What had been a simple quest for a missing god turns out to be infinitely more complicated. This book uses a lot of description to build the fascinating world of the city, so the pacing is on the slower side, but it's worth it. Several of the big characters are compelling, and there's much more of a female presence than in Thunderer. There's definitely a seedy, back-alley Victoriana element to the book and the tone is dark even when it's funny--definitely a fantasy for adult readers. The premise is certainly fresh and interesting, and you'll never expect some of the twists the story takes. I'd recommend these books to people who want to try a different kind of fantasy.
