I took to the method of reading it as if it were a David Lynch movie, letting it wash over me in large strokes. Reading this forum, I've heard it said the story gets "easier" to read as it progresses. I'm hoping this is true?
A few notes
- Rake is bad-ass; probably the most bad-ass character of all time.
- Caladan Brood must be more of a bad-ass then Rake. I hope I learn more about him.
- The apparition of flesh scene with Night chill's/Tattersails silent screaming mouth wandering in the dark was incredibly vivid and disturbing
- I love the mixture of sorcery and violence.
- The dream / death / warren / otherworldly sequences are trippy
- What's a convergence?
