Yes, I was struck by how good it was by just reading the sample, and that's why I bought it.

There are grammatical errors that were not fixed, but through those the talent of the author still showed through. He has very elegant, concise prose. I feel like I'm repeating myself from when it first was talked about here. It's good, not a meme.

Didn't read 'em. Didn't even realize they were out until this thread. They don't look terribly interesting to me, but I might read them at some point.

>>17969788
When/if you do, can you make a /lit/ thread please because I want to know what they're about.

>> No.17969823

>>17969807
I don't anticipate reading them anytime soon, but sure. Though I'm sure someone will be talking about them.
