At times brilliant, at times infuriatingly monotonous, Ballard's 1970 novel is nonetheless a worthwhile read for its relentless sloganeering (chapter titles like 'Why I Want to Fuck Ronald Reagan' and 'The Assassination of John Fitzgerald Kennedy Considered as a Downhill Race') and occasional psychological insiciveness. I would certainly recommend this Flamingo edition which includes an introduction by William Burroughs and extensive notes to each chapter by Ballard himself - an interesting re-evaluation of this 60s celebrity-culture-obsessed novel from the perspective of the 90s. I am still unconvinced of Ballard's talent as a novelist, and found the mini-essay notes a necessary addition, providing an intellectual clarity sometimes lacking in the prose itself.

I couldn't ever finish this book. It was so unlike the previous installments of the series. It seemed like Mr. Harris was trying too hard to trump the success of the previous books that it was almost ridiculous. I tried to re-read it several times and could only make it about halfway.

Enjoyed, this more than the first in the series, Hot Blooded.

The first section when he is in Afghanistan is my favorite. He does such a fantastic job of reading Afghan culture and how we absorb Islam. Its a beautiful first section. The author is also a wonderful person and always makes himself available to his readers.

A fantastic resource for those of us nerds who truly enjoyed Watchmen before the movie was out and even for those who were late in joining the Watchmen craze. This book delves into each of the characters, fleshing out each past, present and future as well as truly what "makes them tick". A great and interesting read for anyone interested in the widely celebrated graphic novel. Enjoyed it so much I had to buy it!

This series (a trilogy beginning with The Amulet of Samarkand) was just meant to be an HP rebound for me, but I ended up really caring about it. Like the Great Rowling, Stroud's really good at making serious ethical questions exciting by giving them a magical spin; but where Harry is a sympathetic character that has greatness thrust upon him, Nathaniel is a total douche most of the time. It'd be like HP following Draco Malfoy's moral development. Also, in many ways this series is a bit more sophisticated than HP. It's got a lot of that dry British sarcasm going on and the alternative London Stroud imagines is way more unsettling than Rowling's. Imagine a world that's 98% Slytherin and you'll get the idea. I'm not saying this is better than HP. I'll admit there were times when I thought about putting it down and just rereading Order of the Phoenix, but I'm really glad I finished it. It was worth it.
An incredible weaving of religious themes with political, social, and cultural themes. Very well crafted.

I'll try to write this without giving anything away, but I was absolutely shocked by the ending and I'm not sure how I feel about it yet. Aside from that, I thought this was another great book. We get to know some new characters, including more a Jonah, which I really enjoyed. Catcher and Mallory are still there, but they play a limited role in this one. And I still think Merit is a great heroine, very strong and independent. But I can't believe how it ended, I was completely in shock and just kept thinking there had to be a mistake, so now I'm trying to adjust and figure out where it's going to go next. I'm anxious for the next one and I hope that it can maintain the status as one of my favorite series, we'll just have to wait and see.
