Everything he writes is weird and wonderful and immersive and just nuts, but the only one that comes close to Embassytown (in my opinion) is The Scar.<br /><br />I've recommended Embassytown to a bunch of people, and a bunch of people have said it was too hard to get into, that they gave up 50 pages in because it didn't grab them, the just couldn't figure out what the heck was going on. Did you have that experience, that it was hard to get into at first?<br /><br />Andrea Jhttp://littleredreviewer.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.com
