A review by giantarms
Saint Leibowitz and the Wild Horse Woman by Walter M. Miller Jr., Terry Bisson
3.0
This book is structured much like the first book: A series of delightful events surrounds a hapless junior monk and then other stuff that is just kind of tedious.
Any time there were people around, this book is great. The characters are all a little wacky. But for some reason, they like to A) have councils of war and B) go do some war, both of which I found trying.
Though, I got to tell you. The nomads have some pretty great names. If your name was Holy Madness I might, myself.
This review would be more coherent if it hadn't taken me like two months to read this thing because events conspire against the reading of books, but I can tell you that Greg liked it very much. He pointed out the "'Fishers of men' doesn't rule out fishing" bit which was an amazing picture to have in one's head. Thanks for that, Mr. Miller, Jr.!
