It was pretty good, due entirely to the structure and plot rather 
than style.   I enjoyed it for about 350 pages (half way?)  and then 
the plot seemed to fizzle and the structure turned gimmicky.  Still, 
it was more interesting than a lot that's out there.   But I'm not 
going out of my way to read another by him.
