Herr Rau reviewed Chemickal Marriage by Gordon Dahlquist
Review of 'Chemickal Marriage' on 'Goodreads'
3 stars
Maybe 2 1/2 stars. I still like the idea, and I cherish the memory of reading the first part of the trilogy. This time, the usual protagonists spend chapter after chapter running away, occasionally together but usually separately (at one time meeting each other briefly in flight, barely nodding and exchanging information, then racing on to their various goals), through a variety of quite atmospheric sets. It got a bit tedious after a while. Felt like a computer game, first person perspective. Still, I applaud the sheer bravado of a book like this. Do begin with the first book, though, and then see if you want to go on.
