This is not for the faint of heart, or for those who do not enjoy non-linear plotlines or exploration of the story as a form. In this book, many stories may seem to be repeated, but each time it is a definite variation on the original. Themes of love, heartbreak, betrayal, revenge, lust, fear, questing and hunting come through time and again. References to ancient Sumerian, Akkadian, Greek, Syrian, and Hebrew mythologies, classic stories from the British Isles, H.P. Lovecraft, and (my guess is) Ray Bradbury's Farenheit 451 and maybe as well some references to ideas from Philip K. Dick. Other themes included the death of Matthew Shepard, the trenches in France during World War I, the introduction of socialism to the men returning from Worl War I and Prometheus. Overall a hell of a ride that does not end with this book. You do have to read Ink to continue and conclude the story. These are not for everyone as the narrative is dissected and spread out in a fashion that is actually more linear than it initially seems, but not in a historical timeline sense.
