it's a mark of how good a writer simmons is that every time he does a fake-out I actually think "oh good, the crew of the doomed and lost franklin expedition are finally saved!" and then i get upset all over again when it's not true

"The ebony clock concluded its striking. It was midnight. It was 1848."

so the carnivale scene was one of the best things i've ever read

ada if i had a nickel for every time dan simmons described a woman's bush i'd have five nickels. which isn't much, but it's more than you'd expect from a book about an all-male expedition to the arctic.
