Have we reached Nirvana?

>The strangest, most cunningly beautiful thing I have read in a long time. To what boundaries of imagination has one saught to find such wondrous confines as this author.

>It is truly well thought out, complex, and thought evoking. It is not for someone who isn't into a bit of fantasy/just wants a light bit of reading...I found the writing to be incredibly unique

>what a interesting book.. well written, a very poetic way of writing

>I was completely blown away by the mastery with which Moers tackles this story. The City of Dreaming Books flows beautifully, I had the hardest time trying to get anything done while I was reading this book

>The City of Dreaming Books is a book that anyone who loves fantasy literature should run out and buy immediately

>This book is really fantastic. The author's imagination is truly like no other. If you are looking for something truly unique and a book that you won't be able to put down...give this one a try.

>Be warned, this is the book you have been waiting for. ... You do not need to know what this book is about. You do not need to know that it will forever replace your here-till-now favorite fantasy. You only need to know that it is the book by which all other books will be judged. I have easily read hundreds of books, searching for a story that sustains you long after the last page: This is THAT BOOK.

>I'm so thrilled to have stumbled upon this book, as I'd never heard of Walter Moers before. Now I just HAVE to read everything else he's written. Right now. And I rarely re-read anything, but I think I'd enjoy reading this one at least one more time.

>This is one of the finest fantasy novels I've ever read. There is no comparison. It is a book created for those of us who love books. It is the book that you have been waiting for. It is the last book you need to read- or the last book you'll read purely for itself, for, in every book you read after this, there will be the memory of the perfection you once found here.
