3.0 out of 5 stars
A bizarre semi-pornographic excursion by PJF,
By A Customer
This review is from: Blown, or Sketches Among the Ruins of My Mind: An Exorcism, Ritual Two (Mass Market Paperback)
This book is quite a surprise for anyone who has read a lot of PJF's work. It involves a private eye, Heralde Child (a sort of proto-Christian leitmotif character who appears in - I'm ashamed that I can't remember - the Kirlian Quest series which either Farmer or Piers Anthony wrote) who becomes involved in a battle for the fate of humanity (really?) against monsters from another universe. Although the characters are true to the PJF model - they embody famous historical characters like the sadistic Gilles de Rais - the bizarre aspect is in the explicitly sexual scenes, as the monsters seek some sort of unifying catharsis through the expenditure of sexual energy. I only gave this three stars because, if I'd never read any of his other work I would have thought this was relatively badly written, but it is worth it if you're a fan. Some critics, such as Simon Flower, found it extremely worthwhile.
