The Centauri Device (S.F. Masterworks)by: M. John Harrison July 13, 2000 |

And that's saying something. I read up to three books a week and have done for 20 years. As has already been commented, this guy uses between a paragraph and a page to write what others would in one word. It's so bad that it is often difficult to work out what is being said because you've forgotten the context by the time you reach the end of the description. Someone else mentioned an Iain Banks credit on the cover... well yes, but he was reviewing the SF Masterworks series rather than the book, which smacks of desperation. Possibly they couldn't find any other positive comments to use? As to the plot and characters, well they were terminally depressing in every way. I found myself skipping whole chapters just to see if anything improved.
