I hadn't heard of Jonathan Carroll before this week, but after reading about him on Glen Engel-Cox's Blog and then doing some searching online, it was clear to me that Carroll is an author I would like. I ran out to the nearest bookstore and picked up Bones of the Moon. I'm glad that I did so. Carroll is an extremely engaging writer. His prose style is deceptively spare, and I very much enjoy the way he progressively blurs the lines between reality and fantasy. I'm now in the enviable position of having a half-dozen novels to read by a writer I know I'll enjoy.
