Title: Fantastic, witty, astonishing
Review: A few days ago, early in the morning, I sat down with Tepper's latest and a cup of coffee, thinking I would read a few chapters and then get started on the day. When I finally paused and looked at my watch, it was 2 p.m. This book is totally enthralling, filled with witty word-play, linguistic puns, a thrilling quest story, and compelling characters. It also has two quite amazing surprises that will astonish you. In some ways this book reminds me of "Grass", in the sense that you think you know what is going on, or even what a creature or person looks like; however, surprises keep coming. I wouldn't hesitate recommending this to anyone who wants a good, literate story, and it should not be considered a book only for science fiction fans (I am not)
