Ebook About From the New York Times bestselling author of The Night Circus, a timeless love story set in a secret underground world—a place of pirates, painters, lovers, liars, and ships that sail upon a starless sea.Zachary Ezra Rawlins is a graduate student in Vermont when he discovers a mysterious book hidden in the stacks. As he turns the pages, entranced by tales of lovelorn prisoners, key collectors, and nameless acolytes, he reads something strange: a story from his own childhood. Bewildered by this inexplicable book and desperate to make sense of how his own life came to be recorded, Zachary uncovers a series of clues—a bee, a key, and a sword—that lead him to a masquerade party in New York, to a secret club, and through a doorway to an ancient library hidden far below the surface of the earth. What Zachary finds in this curious place is more than just a buried home for books and their guardians—it is a place of lost cities and seas, lovers who pass notes under doors and across time, and of stories whispered by the dead. Zachary learns of those who have sacrificed much to protect this realm, relinquishing their sight and their tongues to preserve this archive, and also of those who are intent on its destruction. Together with Mirabel, a fierce, pink-haired protector of the place, and Dorian, a handsome, barefoot man with shifting alliances, Zachary travels the twisting tunnels, darkened stairwells, crowded ballrooms, and sweetly soaked shores of this magical world, discovering his purpose—in both the mysterious book and in his own life.Book The Starless Sea: A Novel Review :
I work in a library and I love book-related fantasy, so I bought a copy of The Starless Sea on Amazon, rather than wait for a copy via the reserve list at the library. The two stars I give this product are for the prompt Amazon delivery and for the product arriving in fine shape.As far as the story itself is concerned, my advice to potential readers is check it out at the library first. Then if you really like it, buy a copy. The book started off fairly well, but soon bogged down and devolved into endless repeat descriptions of keys hanging all over stuff, book pages hanging all over stuff, candle wax dripping all over stuff, honey pouring all over stuff, room-furnishing descriptions and lots and lots of alcohol consumption. The main character's liquor and high-carb food preferences were fine for maybe a single explanation, but after myriad references to sidecars, wine, bourbon, single malt whiskey, beer, etc., etc., and various characters' drinking habits, I was colossally bored.The parts of the book that I did find interesting, such as the possible crossover effects between video games and books in the imaginal realm, were underdeveloped, as were many of the creatures that just seemed to appear and disappear randomly. The basically do-nothing Owls were the worst of the lot. The Owls could have been left out of the story entirely without changing a thing-- they were an almost totally untapped potential.I enjoyed the Rabbit-Girl and the interweaving of the various individual stories, but after everything started cross-referencing everything else, the link-ups became very predictable.Basically, what this book needed and did not get was tight and extensive editing. As it stands, it is basically 500-plus pages of word-salad, pretty and poetic in a few places but mostly mind-numbingly repetitive. I am donating my copy to my library to help shorten the reserve list and hopefully save some folks their hard-earned pocket-money. Night Circus remains one of my personal favorites, largely because of the author's ability to write such beautiful and immersive prose.Reader be forewarned about the glowing reviews.Starless Sea still displays the author's strength in lovely and emotive writing. She is undoubtedly a creative force. However, she intentionally (I assume) uses certain techniques which are a major distraction. Frequent use of choppy and truncated sentence structure. Frequent use of the main character's partial (or full) name, sentence after sentence. Perhaps I am missing some vogue literary technique, but I might suggest a pronoun here or there?The story is intentionally disjointed, both with respect to character(s) and time. It makes it difficult to invest in anything, and I felt like I was reading a kaleidoscope of over-the-top Alice in Wonderland descriptions. I'm not trying to be cruel/harsh - this book will have a much more narrow appeal, whereas Night Circus appealed to many. This book was a disconnected mess of thesaurus writing. I wonder if the author decided to go overboard with those things she's undoubtedly heard from readers of the Night Circus over the past eight years. Unfortunately, she went way too far, and the story is simply not that good.The romance element was unbelievable, largely because it seemed rushed and undeveloped. And...take it as a neutral comment - the same-sex element was a surprise. No - I'm not opposed to same sex relationships, and I understand this critique will trigger some (sorry). In the Night Circus, right there on the back jacket cover, the author describes the romance between a man/woman, played out over years in a unique setting. In Starless Sea...the romance is described more circumspectly on the cover. Admittedly, I may have "passed" on buying Starless Sea had I known about this emphasis. I see nothing wrong or controversial about this. Please don't make it an issue, where none exists. Respectfully, please consider the possibility that someone can be accepting of gay individuals and yet not want to read about them. Readers often want to project themselves into fantasies, even pretending certain possibilities that the story "could happen to them." That's the entertainment in reading fiction, isn't it? So....as someone who has very close gay friends, I see nothing wrong in being honest that I don't want to read about a gay romance, because I don't project myself well into the story. I unapologetically prefer heterosexual romances in a story, because of the reasons I gave above. Just consider this perspective, that's all -Again, I loved Night Circus. Loved it. Starless Sea is altogether different. I am obviously not the target audience, which I suspect must be those (like many of the characters she tries to develop in the book) who are attracted to deeply intense and fragmented storytelling. I found myself not caring anymore about the characters, largely because of the helter skelter manner in which they are developed. It was difficult to motivate myself to finish many of the chapters, let alone the entire lengthy manuscript. (Where was the editor for this book?).I imagine Starless Sea will win awards for her creative writing, much like Night Circus. However, sadly for me this book didn't jive - from the story, to the repetition, to the nature of the romance, & etc.Finally, I reject the positive reviews from people who repeatedly keep writing that you have to read the book more than once to "get it." That is ridiculous. I read Night Circus more than once, because I so enjoyed the story, the characters, the writing & etc. I shouldn't have to re-read a novel because I can't discover a meaningful plot.
