Just crested part six. It loses a star. While imaginative and surreal and scary and descriptively lush, there isn't a lot more going on besides the plot. One character changes, finds himself or is trying to. The rest are swept along, comicbook caricatures. It's really fun but a little long-winded. Highfalutin vocab for for its own sake, not for the specific colors they represent. Still great though!

Wish I wasn't almost halfway through this. So unputdownable. Wait, bedtime already?
