Oh boy. How to start? I read this book back when it first came out. Long before joining goodreads (okay feels longer than it actually was) and before I knew how popular it would become. I remember loving it. But while waiting for the next book it slipped further and further from my mind. I'd see it in the bookstore and remember but forget again. Then the sequel finally came out. I bought and tried to read it without a reread of the first. I had forgotten too much and it didn't work out. I stopped and knew I had to reread this one. But I was almost afraid to. I hate rereading a favorite book and losing it. As if it does any good having a favorite book you can't enjoy. I know odd logic. I struggled with The Wise Mans Fear. And I'm not usually one to buy into or agree with hype. Usually when something is built up too high it can only fail. In my experience anyway. But I didn't lose a friend. I reconnected. I think I loved it even more this time. Have you ever heard two musicians playing the same piece with the same instrument but they can sound completely different? Love of music cannot be faked. No matter the talent. It can be heard. Felt. I think Patrick Rothfuss loves words as a great musician loves music. He did not merely write a story but constructed, conducted, something more. A living story. It is not only black lettering that can be seen. To me it had a voice. As though I could hear Kvothe himself. I have heard many readers who love the book but have the opinion that they hate Kvothe. With all due respect that's crazy to me. The character is the book. The story. Everything. They are one. The book is about a legend. A myth. How a myth is created and what happens when the legend ends. I want to know the rest of the tale. How does Kvothe become Kote? What is coming towards Kote? Who and what are the Chandrian? Does Ben make another appearance? What happens to Denna? Who I didn't hate this time. I actually liked her. And even though part of it did remind me of the Harry Potter series, Harry never had such a fun teacher as Elodin. Fun, crazy, whatever. Five, six, ten stars. A favorite book I do not have to be afraid to read again. And I know I will.

Dick is a noted Sci Fi author who likes to weave in elements of pulp fiction into reality bending sci fi. While he seems to have died more or less penniless, he is now recognized as one of the foremost science fiction writers of the 20th Century. The prescience of his work may explain why such enormous films as Bladerunner, Minority Report, Total Recall, Screamers and Scanner Darkley were all based on his writings. In particular, his interest in the interplay between artificial worlds seems to have captured post-modern reality very nicely. Between Second Life, MMORPGs, the Sims etc. etc., the line between context of reality continues to blurr. It was that blurr that seemed to so interest him. In Dr. Bloodmoney, we encounter a post-apocolyptic world. But this is what we might call a light apocalypse. There was a nuclear exchange, but it didn't go all the way. There is still a government, people are working to restore earlier luxuries like electricity. Commerce is slowly coming back online. But simplicity and self-sufficiency are the hallmarks of the new world. Specialized knowledge, like what mushrooms are safe to eat, is highly valued. Mutations of all sorts have occured. Some of them preceeded the current nuclear exhange and can be traced back to an earlier error that detonated a nuclear weapon in the high atmosphere over the United States. Hoppy Harrington, is such a victim. He has deformed arms and legs, but has developed psychokenisis as an alternative. He is also a mechnic, called a "handy" in this brave new world. Only his extended power will ultimately cause him to be feared and killed. Dr. Bloodmoney himself, seems to be a mad Hungarian atomic scientist known as Professor Bluthgeld. He had taken responsibility for the high altitude incident upon himself and it had driven him mad. He know imagines that he has the power to command the destruction of manking with nuclear weapons. Oddly, as the story pans out, he does have this power. It is the mutant Hoppy, with his psychokenisis who stops him. Of course, that makes people fear Hoppy, and you know where that goes. The overall story here seems to move into the surreal a little too glibly for my taste. It is amazingly engaging at the start following all of the unimagined consequences of a less technological, but modern life thrust upon a little Northern Californian community. But ultimately I found it unsatisfying. It is not Dick's most highly regarded work, but given my ongoing fascination with the post-apocalypse, I was drawn to it. Plus, it was on sale at audio books. I will probably give Dicks work another try, but will look for something a little better regarded.

What to say? I was bewildered, amazed, and moved by this book. Equal parts a work on spirituality and morality and a scathing satire of Soviet social order and bureaucracy, it was one of the few books I can remember where I read every single bit of introductory commentary and annotation available in the edition I had. And certainly the only one I can remember where I went back and re-read the first 50 pages or so after I finished because I wanted to experience them again. There are so many ways to enjoy this book. For me, the strongest theme was the condemnation of those who profess to know all about human spirituality and immortality, or the lack thereof. (Indeed, the first character who claims to know so meets with a very grisly end.) The way that the characters in the book disappear at the hands of Woland and his retinue so suddenly and bizarrely, mystifying those left behind, works very powerfully as a metaphor for the Great Purge that was taking place as Bulgakov was finishing the final drafts. And the interaction between the noble yet pitiful (in the kindest sense of the word) Jesus and the cynical and bitter Pilate is one of the more uplifting things I can remember reading. To anyone who struggles to make sense of the chaos of this book when they first start out on it, as I did, I offer the following, from the Afterword: But it is a mark of the quality of this work that both the ignorant and the initiated may find entertainment equally - it is not necessary to solve all the mysteries to enjoy The Master and Margarita. That is, it is the kind of work that encourages multiple readings. Writing this almost makes me want to pick it up again.
