Mike Ferrante over at the King of the Nerds blog had just posted his review of Paul Jessup’s OPEN YOUR EYES. Here’s a piece of what he had to say about the surrealistic space opera:
“Open Your Eyes is a delightfully strange and highly original book. Jessup is mentioned in marketing materials as being a writer of “weird fiction” and that stuck in my mind as I was reading this novella. The alien feeling of the world and its technology, the horrific sentient language disease and a strong sense of the unnatural and the unknown that permeates the novel all evoke, to me at least, the style and atmosphere of weird fiction. While I frequently found the novel’s surrealistic imagery made for a somewhat difficult read I still found it made for an impressively compelling addition to the Space Opera genre. In fact I would go so far to say that it is the most original Space Opera I’ve ever read.”

Faith. So much of our reality is determined by what we believe, and it can so easily be... undone.
