Review: A winning combination
Rating: 5 out of 5
Date: 03 27, 2014
This is a very thought-provoking, spiritual, and well-written novel. It is pleasingly esoteric yet written with an engaging, down-to-earth style of story-telling. It is at times long-winded, but this is more than made up for by the scores of interesting and illuminating details provided about the world and its characters.  It is not forgettable, it is especially deep, and it is uncommonly imaginative.  When combined, these factors make for a powerful novel that is on a rare level of quality.
