Of his work, wild sheep chase stays in my memory strongly; disquieting
It was Book 1 and 2, didn't realise there was a book 3.
Overall I enjoyed it, the storyline is my sort of story, a bit of conspiracy, a bit of sleuthing, action, murder, an essence of sci-fi, and good ol' confusion. It is a bit dystopian but in a subtle, fantastical way.
I'm a bit impatient and at times the book lingered over plotlines that seemed unnecessary, and there was a LOT of sexual imagery and sexual discussion in the book, not a bad thing, but I wasn't expecting it at all. Although the story is set in Japan, without the constant name reminders and mentions of Japanese customs, the settings make it feel much more European.
