Hints of Zelazny and John DeChancie.

I love coming across a great sentence in a book. A new way of describing something. A seeming contradiction that lands a punch because of how effectively it says what it shouldn’t be able to say. Mark has always been great at this, but DoC has more amazing showstopper lines than anything I’ve read in a long time. And they’re so fucking seamless.
I’m kinda jealous.

After recognizing too many names I now read with my phone handy so I can look up the various gods, furies, and places. And I still feel like I’m missing a layer of the story.
This…so far, this is really fucking good.
