Title: Drowned and Defeated in Kalimantaan.
Review: Before I bought this book, I read the Amazon readers comments. Someone said the first 40 pages were confusing. I tried to get into this book for 90 pages and then gave up. The narrative is confusing and it's hard to keep track of the characters. When I could get a feel for where we were heading, I just kept thinking "Who Cares?" and "So what?" I tried to keep going since I had spent the money for the hardback but finally decided that my time was too valuable to invest any more of it on this read. If you're compelled to read it, at least wait for the paperback.
