I liked Karas more so for it's art style. While the story about demons did pull me in, it was kinda..flat. Not much was going on with it, which was disappointing. Another thing I remember is Casshern, but..I couldn't stand watching it past the beginning. Too much god damned orange, but I have a friend who loved it.

Exactly! I loved the animation and character design but the story...

I read that book in one day, taking breaks only for eating, pooping and napping. :omg:

It might have been a mistake though. It's like a gateway drug to his longer books. Now I'm hooked on everything Stephenson and am working my way through the 3,000-page Baroque Cycle. :picard:
