5.0 out of 5 stars
Unsummarizable,
By A Customer
This review is from: Arrive at Easterwine;: The autobiography of a ktistec machine, (Hardcover)
This is the oddest, most wonderful book ever written about the Institute of Impure Research, snow crystals, King Peter of Ganymede, hunting tigers, and the fellahin. It contains multitudes.

A treasure of modern literature!,

This review is from: Arrive at Easterwine;: The autobiography of a ktistec machine, (Hardcover)
Not only one of my two favorite books of all time, but also a 20th century novel written for the subsequent century. The most vivid characters I've ever encountered, a brilliant insight into the nature of artificial intelligence and cosmology... and a barrel of laughs.I love this book!

Perhaps R. A. Lafferty's best,
By A Customer
This review is from: Arrive at Easterwine;: The autobiography of a ktistec machine, (Hardcover)
R. A. Lafferty was a one-of-a-kind author of science fantasy. This is perhaps my favorite of his books. I highly recommend it.
