          <body><![CDATA[I completely agree!  I also read The City of Dreaming Books first.  I enjoyed that book better but this book had some very interesting ideas and kept me intrigued.  I can understand where people would be thrown off if they were looking for a Tolkien-ish type of book.  However, the cover art and title very obviously give the feel of the book.  It's a child-like tale written for adults.  I would definitely recommend this book!]]></body>
