1.0 out of 5 stars Maybe I should have read House of Doors first, 2 Jun 1999
By A Customer
I picked Maze of Worlds up at an airport bookstand. I was amazed at the lack of character development, even though I knew this was a sequel to a book I hadn't read. Although I can understand why Lumley didn't want to bore his fans with a rehash of Gill and Turnbull, I wish he would have dedicated a couple of pages at the beginning to explain what happened in House of Doors. The way the characters were introduced in Maze of Worlds seemed contrived--especially when the dog showed up.

I hate to rip on an author, but I wasn't overly impressed with the dialog, either. Every other page, I found myself trying to understand why Lumley would word a sentence so strangely. It was a laborious read, and the only reason I stuck around after page 50 is that I was on an airplane and my only alternative was Sky magazine.

I thought Lumley had an interesting premise with this one, and that's why I bought the book. My complaint is not with the story, but with the way it was written.

It is evident that Lumley has a fan base and that his other books have done well, so I can only assume that his other books were better reads.
