A review by skylar2
City of Saints and Madmen by Jeff VanderMeer

1.0

I couldn't bring myself to finish this book. The first story is decent. Then there's a 150-odd page history of Ambergris, where the footnotes take up more than the actual prose. I think it's supposed to be "ironic". About halfway through the history I stopped reading the footnotes, and a few dozen pages after that, lost interest in the prose.
