Book Reviews of Chrome Suite
Book Review: Complex, gripping novel
Summary: 4 Stars
I first read "The Chrome Suite" a year ago, but have reread it since. Each time, I find something new within it. It is an excellent novel with gripping characters, complex situations and beautiful prose. The only quibble I had with it was the sometimes confusing narration, though given attention it quickly remedies itself. I would highly recommend this book to anyone.
