Burning through Straub’s Floating Dragon—again. What a ride! Some of Straub’s fiction – notably the Blue Rose Trilogy that followed this book—is dense, convoluted, and challenging. Don’t get me wrong; it’s great writing…it just requires some effort to get through.

Dragon, on the other hand (like Ghost Story and Shadowland before it) absolutely flies by…without sacrificing the sky-high Straub standard for character development and narrative structure.

Cheers,
