Rather odd. Sort of a post-apocalyptic version of an icelandic saga. If you're familiar with the sagas, the parallels here will be obvious. More interesting than truly enveloping. I'd like to read it again someday: I had this one years ago as a rather poor audiobook and I seem to remember being distracted during the entire experience of listening.

I give up. I could not get into this book. I thought it was so-bad-it's-good at first, but I eventually got too bored to finish.

One of the best books I've ever read. Incredibly, unique! Takes few, if any, cues from mainstream story telling. Loved it!
