Somewhere between writing Groan and Gormenghast, Peake picked up a bad habit of relying too much on describing things through antiquated racial terms, something I only got an occasional whiff of in the first book. A lot more swing-and-misses in his lengthy, unusual descriptions, but the dude is still swinging in very creative ways.

Finished with Titus Groan. I can honestly say I am so delighted to know I have over 700 pages of this still in front of me. In love with Peake's writing.
