29/8 - I read up to page 58 then took the time to skim/read Richard Reviles Censorship's review to see if my problems with the book were mine alone, it wasn't encouraging. I hadn't liked the writing style or four different voices from the first lines I read. I didn't like the fact that it was ambiguous as to whose voice I was hearing from, I had to work it out from which of the other characters were mentioned by eliminating them one by one. A character called Ore had a portion of a chapter right at the beginning, some 30 pages before we actually find out who Ore is - a strangely (and needlessly) confusing situation for the reader. The blurb on the back was so promising, but was ruined (for me) by the strange language, although I may not have continued even if the language had been more normal considering some of the other problems other reviewers have pointed out.
