"It's a very good read so far. The characters are all so phenomenally strange. Their names sound so silly among all of the serious happenings in the strange world of Gormenghast. Steerpike is by far the most clever character I've ever come across in fiction. Amazing writing and a great storyline." — Jun 24, 2012 08:58AM

“Tell me why the stars do shine,
Tell me why the ivy twines,
Tell me what makes skies so blue,
And I'll tell you why I love you.
Nuclear fusion makes stars to shine,
Tropisms make the ivy twine,
Raleigh scattering make skies so blue,
Testicular hormones are why I love you. ”
