"I guess I'd give it 3 and 1/2 stars. It was good, enjoyable, always surprising and the characters are all interesting and sad and strange. It kind of meanders for awhile, but the end was satisfying. An impressive book, but not the greatest.

"If I had read this in junior high or high school I would probably have loved "Fullmetal Alchemist". As it is, its still a pretty cool story and a fun diversion.

"Yes, of course, the whole idea is utterly inane, but to let its predictable inanities blind you to its truly fabulous and breathtaking aspects is to do both oneself and the genre a disservice."
