I found the start rather off-putting because of the style. Since the lead character is slmost nothing like Stephen Fry, it's a bit odd that his writing should have so much in it that only sounds OK when heard in Fry's voice.

The movie script stuff was also not for me.

But I did enjoy the latter parts of the book, although it wasn't really well enough done for science fiction. But I suppose that's not surprising since it's not really a science fiction novel.

It was OK. I probably wouldn't have pushed through the first couple of chapters if it wasn't for the book club.
