There's much which inhibits the outsider (and, no doubt, soothes the insider) as you try to read these: the seemingly interminable need for names likes anagrams of machine parts, the mix of fairy tale fantasy and constant battle, the gruesome discharge of blood, acid and gore. But once you're in, the imaginative pull of plot and character is tremendous and the strangeness eases. These are dense and packed stories which can hook a whole group of readers.
