"Loving how this book is simultaneously fantastical and yet grounded in reality. It's like listening to a grandfather tell tales of what was. In amongst the facts, you're also getting a fairytale. It's a grand soap opera so far, and while some characters get short shrift, I'm enjoying the journey" — Oct 15, 2014 05:39PM

"If I could classify a book as performance art, this would be it. My brain is in a constant state of anxiety, constantly waiting for the next surprise. I'm in love and in hate. It's a constant emotional reaction. I simultaneously want to beat the book with a lead pipe and snuggle up next to it and comfort it. This isn't prose, it's poetry with a narrative. I'm in love." — Jan 16, 2016 05:28PM

“The story so far:
In the beginning the Universe was created.
This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.”
