## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Unique, outstanding, brilliant!!
*by A***R on 31 January 2022*

Some reviews have incorrectly claimed that this book is outside any existing genre - it is in fact a fabulous melange of forms created by authors like Borges, Eco, Marquez, Poe, Shelley and other greats and not-so greats. While disappointed by the lack of ultimate resolution of plot (I am such a square), the excessive violence, the sometimes pornographic ikeyness of some of the scenes painted and the apparent tendency to lean just a bit too heavily on the crutch of obscurantism, I forgive all for the immense joy of the linguistic invention, the newness of metaphor, the (to me) astonishingly creative linguistic vigour. J. C. Crabtree

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Needs some careful proof reading?
*by D***S on 9 February 2025*

The books are an amazing feat of imagination; as someone else pointed out, they are on the scale of Gormenghast though the subject matter is totally different. The use of language is entrancing though, occasionally, one wonders if there are proofreading errors and there were cases of obvious error ('ascent' instead of 'accent' was particularly noticeable)The weaving together of the stories of the individual characters and their, sometimes very oblique, effect on each other and the various events, is a spellbinding achievement.I am reading the third and eagerly anticipating the drawing together of all the disparate, yet interwoven, character story lines.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Unique, subtle horror and beautifully written
*by V***N on 9 February 2023*

I loved The Vorrh and although I am only halfway through this sequel, I am enjoying it just as much - if not more. Brian Catling is an incredible writer with a very interesting way with words that perfectly encapsulates the unsettling atmosphere of this story. Whenever I start reading it again I struggle to put it down, it’s genuinely like nothing I’ve ever read before. Highly recommend.
