I have not read any of Charlie Smith's other work, so I can't compare this to previous efforts. His writing is poetic, and truly impressive in short bursts. But over the long haul, the poetry interferes with the prose. Words and phrases seem to be chosen more for their sounds and rhythms than for their contributions to plot, and dialogue can be stilted. Imagery is vivid but occasionally self-indulgent. The storyline is interesting at first but eventually grows gaudy and distasteful. The power of Smith's language is his greatest strength, but it is a strength better suited to poetry than novels.
Negative

I've read nearly everything Foster has written and this book is my absolute favorite (Into the Out of is a close second) The flora and fauna of this world is what grabbed my imagination and the different levels of the rain forest is very well thought out. I'd love to see Jim Hensons production company make this into a movie
Positive

Telemann: Sinfonia spirituosa; String Concertos is a recording under the direction Reinhard Geoebel leading the Musica Antiqua Köln on this Deutsche Grammophon GmbH recording from 2002. It contains a well-written essay entitled "Georg Phillip Tellemann: A Musician Abreast Of The Times" written by Richard Goebel and translated into English by Richard Evidon. The performance by Musica Antiqua Köln is nothing short of splendid and I thorougly enjoy this recording. Highly recommended. 5/5.
