Not Chevillard's best, but close,

This review is from: Palafox (Paperback)
I enjoyed this novel very much, but it was bound to pale next to Chevillard's Crab Nebula. The abrupt transitions are not so surprising or funny. But there's enough clever language play and humor for anyone. A group of naturalists and neighbors tries to classify, domesticate and exploit the changeable Palafox, who confounds all of their plans and expectations, sometimes violently.

Fantasy,

This review is from: Palafox (Paperback)
An amusing romp through French society, this book uses the device of a creature of infinite morphability. A thread of devestating characterisation runs through this book tying it together neatly. All the scenes combine to lead to a clever climax.
