| Re: Otherland
I just finished the Otherland series this week...
Got to admit, I think it was awfully padded out - 4 thick volumes with so many scenes following this pattern:
They appeared in a strangte world, nearly died from something, felt tired, cried, fell in some water, cried some more and felt more tired.
In the end it left me feeling...tired!
I was really pee'd off about Jonas, though - he starts the series and you follow him through trials and tribulations, and then at the end I just felt cheated - as though he was never an important character.
Overall, Otherland is really thick with character and the series is very well written - but it feels so padded out, with too many characters and too many repetitive scenes.
