Now I'm ready for Part III in a few weeks, two days booked off to read it. I enjoyed this more on the second read, maybe because the first was fresh in my head so I understood the character of Malcolm more, and also was able to follow the various characters as they all headed east across Europe and Asia Minor. Probably also helped that a society ruled by an authoritarian theocracy that opposes science, reason and will not put up with any dissent is not quite so other-worldly given the way out own civilisation is going. On the bright side, William seems to have settled into secondary school really well, already making new friends and going out with them in the evenings and weekends. So different from Freddie!
