Review: really absorbing and thought provoking. myself being a historian i was instantly drawn to its really eye catching, funky front cover. i can' wait for robinson's nextt book to come out- i've heard that its even better. he obviously took a lot of time and care over it- i can spot no punctuation mistakes. i've heard he has 2 children- both of them adorable (especially the girl, mayumi) and i am desperate to meet them (well, not the boy)
