It is very Jasper Fforde to take an idea that is on the surface ludicrous, and make it “real” where i care about the characters, and the logic of the world holds together, and terrible and beautiful and funny things happen

Whoa. That was a wild ride. Overall i liked it, tho there are a some bits where you just suspend disbelief and roll with things. Not much on the likable characters front. But a puzzle and an introspection on what it means to be human.
