Finished Fix, which was enjoyable. Now about a third of my way through Something Wicked This Way Comes by Ray Bradbury.
First thing: Best title evar!
Second thing: very rich prose, downright poetic without stooping to rhyme or excessive alliteration.
Third: this book has obviously influenced many a writer of books and script (and I have probably seen a movie or three that was a treatment of this story) and so I have to work a little to flush that detritus out of my mind and appreciate this book in and of itself.
