The Glass Books of The Dream Eaters (Abridged) Audiobook

" best thing I've read in ages. Tore through it like a madwoman, the same with the second one. The Dark Volume (number 3 in the series) became a little tedious in places but I love the characters so much that I don't really care. The Dark Volume also didn't answer all my questions - his style is lovably murky - but did make room for another - I hope it comes out soon. Cardinal Chang is the best character ever. I want to see this in film! "

" I had high hopes for this book, but it ended up being kind of tedious and the ending, a cliff-hanger, didn't make me long for the sequel. "

" One of the times I picked something randomly from the "Staff Picks" at a book store. I had no idea what it even was. Sci-fi, horror, a kinky tale of debauchery? Turns out it was all three. This was such a fun read, an so unexpected. I have already hit two book stores (I finished it yesterday) for the second half. I'll break it down more when I finish that one. "

" was all-consumed with this book, ripped through it in 2 days. stayed up late to keep reading. great rollicking steam-punk adventure tale for adults. "

" It's a steam punk bodice ripper. Much fun. "

" This book is strange. But I can't seem to stop reading it. must finish! "

" Fantastic novel set in a fantasy world very recognisable as our own. "

" An impulse buy in the Jakarta, Indonesia airport... I thought it was fun. "

" Really fun to read, but too much of a cliffhanger, and a bit like reading a novelist's first attempt at science fiction as an excuse to live out his porny fantasies. Still, exciting enough to send me head-long into the sequel. "

" A punishing read that took way too many pages to tell a story I didn't care about by the end. "

" I tried to read this book on several occasions but couldn't get past the first chapter. Back to the used bookstore with you! "

" Not really a review, but I'm wondering why a 464 page book only has 6 chapters. "

" I blew through this book in one week! I couldn't put it down. It's got elements of Victorian mystery, science fiction, and even some erotica. "

" Not fantastic, but worth continuing the series. The entire book reads like chapter 1. "

" This book was very different from anything I've read recently. I guess it could be considered Victorian Science Fiction. I enjoyed it very much. It has a cliff hanger ending and I can't wait to start on volume 2. "

" I picked this book up last week and I was sucked in immediately - and I even enjoyed when it turned science fiction - but I guess I was just waiting for someone to actually die or for something to be explained but it never happened - and I was disappointed. I don't see myself pursuing volume II. "

" The best recent fantasy novel I've read in many years. Action packed Victoriana and sexy with it. "

" Very unique. The main charachters stumble upon each other and as well as mystery and intrigue (with a somewhat erotic nature). It was a pleasant surprise. "

" Don't waste your time. Listened to the 12-hr ABRIDGED audio with finger on fast-forward. No character development. Thin plot drawn out with lots action; action that never heightens or bring more complex conflict. Dark, depressing, and boring at the same time, if that's possible. The cover is nice. "

" This being my 28th read of the year . . . "

" clever and entertaining in a very hollywood sort of way. rather over the top. "

" One of my favourite books ever. "

" The Glass Books of the Dream Eaters has some interesting characters, but it is let down by the plot, which is simply ridiculous. Nothing in this novel encourages me to read the second in the series or, indeed, read anything else from Gordon Dahlquist. "

" Interesting premise. Boring idea of the subversive. Good lord, someone introduce this man to an editor. "

" Superb. A dark, sexy and brilliantly imagined hybrid of Victorian melodrama and classic science fiction, populated with wonderfully compelling characters. Would make a splendid movie. "
