I guess that it’s worth it. It’s one of the strangest series of stories that I’ve read in a while. I read this book because of The Wasp Factory. Totally different type of fiction. I am very impressed that both books could come out of the same author, and I plan to read Complicity really soon. If you don’t like science fiction you WON’T like this book, but don’t avoid this author, because his writing is amazing. Definitely check out The Wasp Factory if you get the chance, and check this book out if you like sci-fi.
