Most reviews seem to be rather mixed on this novel, personally I really enjoyed it. The books story itself had weak moments(the twins) but at the same time the realationship between Ghost and Steve was one of the closest(and yes hetero) I have ever read about. Zillah and his crew were weak characters but Nothing really was an intruiging and well written character. One problem I had was that Nothing did not have as much time to "bond" with Ghost. This is a great rainy-afternoon-read, I also think that at would translate into a very interesting film.
