Tim Powers DECLARE

I read through Tim Power's Kim Philby spy novel a second time. His ability to construct a very complicated, but entirely consistent, and bizarre story is vastly entertaining. This is a fine novel and is as much a love story as it is spy story and even more a supernatural mystery with its own unique rules. I have now read four of Powers' novels and all have been an experience I greatly enjoyed. This may qualify him as an important author, and will therefore require that we read more of his stuff. The novels I have read: THE ANUBIS GATES, LAST CALL, ON STRANGER TIDES and DECLARE.
