I think that perhaps Danlo has also read The High House by James Stoddard...I know that I have both read and enjoyed it greatly, though I have never been able to find a copy of its sequel, The False House. It's not in the usual run of fantasy at all... The High House is an endless place, with dragons in the attic, man-eating furniture, and other very imaginative objects throughout...you could spend a lifetime wandering around it and not see everything... It is called Evenmere, and some say that it was built by God to run the universe... And a man named Carter Anderson has to become its Master in the face of an attack by anarchists, and if he fails the Universe itself might be put at risk... Very unusual and enjoyable read! Our lives are the songs that sing the universe into existence.~David Zindell ****Tavern Wench of DOGMA, the Defenders of George Martin's Art****<i></i>
