How sorry will I be...

...if I give up on Jellicoe Road? (Or at least put it off until I can get hold of the audio edition.)


To avoid embarrassment, I'm not even going to tell you how few pages I've read since last night at 11:00. Accounts vary, but rumor has it this befuddling story suddenly becomes compelling, addictive, and brilliant after 100-200 pages. Tempting, but just now I don't think I have a couple hundred pages of confusion-tolerance in me.

So actually, I AM putting this down for now, no matter what you all say. If you're appalled, do your worst -- with enough badgering I'll give it another shot. Someday.
