3.0 out of 5 stars good book, but this item isn't the one to buy!, 6 Mar 2006
Not really a review, more a caution - this item is in fact the first book in the Baroque cycle, but is ONLY the first book (of 9)! You really want to buy the same named book that contains the first 3 bits together (ISBN 0099410680 I think), as otherwise its hard to buy the 2nd and 3rd bits (King of the Vagabonds, Odalisque).

3.0 out of 5 stars Reiterating..., 21 April 2006
By 
Hannah Dee - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I made the mistake of buying this book along with "Confusion" and "System of the World". Finished this one last night, picked up "Confusion", and was most disappointed to discover it started with Book 4! So I owned books 1, 4, 5, ... What a pain.

If you're interested in reading the whole set (which I am) don't get this one, get the bigger one with the same title.

5.0 out of 5 stars One-third ONLY of the original Quicksilver!, 28 Nov 2009
By 
H. Beentje "Henk Beentje" (Kew, England) - See all my reviews
(VINE VOICE)    (TOP 50 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
I agree with both reviewers (though any bit of the cycle deserves five stars!) - This is the book of the same title, but consisting of only ONE THIRD PART, of the original Quicsilver. Here are the details

"Quicksilver" is now divided up and published in three: "Quicksilver", "King of the vagabonds", and "Odalisque".
"The Confusion" has been split in two: "Bonanza" and "Juncto"
"The system of the World" into three, "Solomon's Gold" "Currency" and "The System of the World".

So nothing new, sadly. Wish it were. You have been warned!

If you don't know what I'm talking about, youre really lucky - you have a treat ahead of you. Start with Quicksilver, and have yourself a ball!
