For those who turn on TCM only to bask in the glow of classic actors and actresses. Entertaining insights, and worth picking up for the illustrations alone.
I really disliked this book.

its good.. just finished the first one..
Fascinating setting, compelling narrative style, and interesting, complicated characters. Somehow, though, this book didn't amaze me the way I expected it might, after reading others' reviews. The repetition of characters' names was an odd device that, for me at least, was too distracting/confusing to be totally effective, although I understand what the author was going for. I definitely enjoyed it, and will want to re-read it at some point in the future, but I wish my expectations hadn't been so lofty. Then again, perhaps later in life I'll be able to appreciate this one more fully.

An amazing novel
I finished reading Aurorarama last night before heading to bed. It was pretty good; steampunk-ish without being overpowering. The inside of the dust jacket says: “Episode one in an astonishing new series” but it looked so good I bought it anyway, despite my stated aversion to series (I think I may be trying to fool myself on this one). Oddly Aurorarama reads more like episode 1.5 or even 2. All the characters have a history we don’t know that keeps popping up without much explanation; and it’s a history that the author seems to think we know and that seems critical to the story. This certainly gives the story & characters depth, but I found it somewhat confusing. I searched the net a couple of different times to see if there were any precursor stories or even an earlier novel. As far as I can tell, there aren’t any. It’s an interesting stylistic approach. It made me feel I’d entered a story in progress and it avoided (or at least made me less aware of) the typical first novel in a series digressions where the author introduces the characters and the back story. The story takes place in the early part of the 20th century in the city of New Venice, a city in northern Canada, close to the Arctic Circle. There may be enough geographic clues in the book to determine New Venice’s exact location, but I’m not an expert on northern Canadian geography and didn’t have an atlas handy while I was reading. On the other hand, this does take place in an alternate world, so the names may not be the ones we use anyway. New Venice was apparently founded as some form of utopia & has been drifting from its roots. The two main characters are two friends who have grown apart: Brentford Orsini, a respectable member of society and government employee, and Gabriel d’Allier, a decadent (degenerate?) professor. In their own different ways they have lost their ways and are adrift. In addition each is having their own separate but related difficulties with the city authorities. In Aurorarama everything comes to a head and everything adrift comes together. It’ll be interesting to see where Valtat takes this series. He’s created an interesting world and a cast of characters to populate it, but it’s not clear that they are particularly well suited for whatever comes next. Bottom line: Aurorarama is a good read & I’ll, if I see it, I’ll pick up the next book in the series.
