4.0 out of 5 stars Incredible Science-Fantasy, November 26, 2003
By 
Silas Traitor (The South, United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: A storm of wings: Being the second volume of the "Viriconium" sequence, in which Benedict Paucemanly returns from his long frozen dream in the far ... of the locust (Doubleday science fiction) (Hardcover)
A strange invasion is happening in Viriconium. In the wake of an eldritch fog smelling of lemons people are changing; reality is reshaping. This is Harrison's second installment in the Viriconium series, and though it stands alone, reading Pastel City first will increase empathy for several of the characters involved. I am sure this is a book with underlying themes and deep meanings; it read that way. I just don't know what they are. Harrison's writing is beyond me, and maybe that's why I like it so much-it challenges. Storm of Wings showcases unique and unforgettable characters blundering their way through barely explainable events in which most times they are as perplexed as the reader. I wholeheartedly recommend the entire Viriconium series to readers who enjoy bewildering science-fantasy. Harrison does not disappoint.
