Review of 'The Book of Leviathan' on 'Storygraph'

5 stars

I read this in The Independent when I still lived in England.

I loved it SO DAMN HARD. It was xkcd before XKCD, before Calvin and Hobbes, it was a baby experiencing life as a complete newcomer wondering what on Earth people were doing with themselves. Imagine if Kurt Vonnegut crossed Martin Gardner.

There is no way I can not recommend this book.
