The size hasn't put me off but it seems I have quite a few "larger" books and it's been slow going! lol.. glad you liked it even though slow spots.. it seems the very large books all have those slow spots and its not always easy getting past them.DesLilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02582481597658080464noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8144784325334181261.post-15624322271734786022010-10-04T21:03:27.581-05:002010-10-04T21:03:27.581-05:00I'm so glad someone else out there has read th...I'm so glad someone else out there has read this. I picked it up because I thought the hardcover was so gorgeous.<br /><br />I, too, think the pacing was deliberate, and I was fascinated by the procedure on board.<br /><br />It was petrifying and beautiful all at the same time.

I definitely got spooked and felt the same anguish and despair for these characters.<br /><br />The doc was one of my favorites, and in terms of fatalism... whew. It was rough.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8144784325334181261.post-54102046719959805042010-10-04T21:00:48.198-05:002010-10-04T21:00:48.198-05:00I bought this book not long ago because I loved Da...I bought this book not long ago because I loved Dan Simmons's Drood, but I've been putting off picking this up because it's so long.
