5.0 out of 5 stars Insanity Unleashed, 13 April 2002
By Jesse B Ellyson (Dale City, Virginia United States) - See all my reviews
A psychedelic romp through the etheric soul of eternity, ‘Shamanspace’ reads like a recipe for a psychotic episode of mass proportions. At long last we have proof that God exists and the race is on to take revenge on the supreme maker of life, death, and cheap whiskey. The edgeman Alix is the favored to win as he sidesteps through time and space on his quest to drive the bullet home. God is the target, Alix is the gun, and the stakes are high as the very existence of humanity perches on the cusp of oblivion. Steve Aylett has created a masterwork of speculative fiction written in a hybrid English perhaps best described as Cyberspeak. The book is fast paced and unrelenting and it keeps the reader riveted right to the last page. Read this book and prepare to be dazzled and dazed and altered on a cellular level. ‘Shamanspace’ isn’t so much taken in through the eyes as it is injected into the veins. This book is a drug delivered on a dirty needle. It will leave you mind-blown and wasted and craving still more.

5.0 out of 5 stars The True Voice of the 21st Century, 7 Jan 2002
By A Customer
Aylett's fertile and totally unique imagination does it again. God has been found to exist and the hunt is on to take revenge. Aylett is the natural successor to William Burroughs, J.G.Ballard and Michael (Jerry Cornelius) Moorcock. He is hitting the hip pulse of the planet and he gets better all the time. Put this at the top of your list. You won't regret it.
Lewis Carroll meets Salvador Dali and Raymond Chandler. Yes!

2.0 out of 5 stars Save your hard-earned coppers!, 19 Dec 2004
By A Customer
To put my credentials on the table -- I'm a fan of Steve Aylett. I like his writing style, and have enjoyed all his earlier stuff.

So I'm used to Aylett's books not being the easiest of reads. Usually they're well worth the effort. Shamanspace, however, is so opaque as to be unreadable. In fact, it's one of the few books I've ever thrown away out of disgust.

Usually Aylett's writing sizzles. In Shamanspace, every other line just falls flat. The line spacing and margins are odd to try to disguise the fact that the book is a bit light on actual content. Usually I read Aylett and get a feeling for how much work and effort he's clearly put into it. This felt as if it was knocked out in a weekend or two.
