Title: Floating Dragon sinks
Product review: Having read 'Ghost Story' and 'shadowland'I guess I'm on a downward slope with Mr Straub and this book proves it. The horror (or gore) is OTT and unnecesary in a lot instances but the main problem with this book is it just doesnt have a coherent plot There are too many distractions that contribute nothing to the story and just leave you thinking just what is the story ? As usual with Peter Straub the book is intelligently written and he 'jumps' you around the way he likes to which is a particular Straub-ism that he is known for . But at the end of the day this book has been 'over written' and doesnt contain strong enough characters or a streamlined plot to make this a memorable read
