Product Description

Product Description

Painter is a leo - part man, part lion - the result of one of man's genetic experiments, a powerful, beautiful, enigmatic creature deemed a 'failure' to be be hunted down. But Painter has two advantages in this world of small bickering nation states and political accommodation and compromise: his own strength and integrity, and the guile of Reynard, another of man's experiments, a subtle and potent intriguer, a king-maker...

5.0 out of 5 stars Another poignant gem from the demigod Crowley, 5 Aug 2001
By Jason Mills "jason10801" (Accrington, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)      
Look, it's very simple: EVERYTHING by John Crowley is 5 stars. This one's quiet and sad, arguably his 'worst' novel, and STILL 5 stars! Just hit '1-click' and have done with it.
