I enjoyed reading this novel, immensely. I found the format very original with each new chapter coming from the perspective of one of the four main characters. While this is classified as Sci-Fi I consider it closer to horror, or at least a 'Strange Tales' or 'Twilight Zone' feel, but I enjoyed it nonethless. Robert Silverberg has an easily digestible style and mixes great insight, a deep knowledge of history, and excellent humor, which had me laughing out loud at times, while shocked and amazed at other times. The dialogue was believable and captivating. This is a work of great depth and I highly recommend it. I can't wait to read more by Silverberg. 5-stars.
