Gormenghast is more than a sequel to Titus Groan - it is an enrichment and deepening of that book.The fertility of incident, character and rich atmosphere combine in a tour de force that ranks as one of the twentieth century's most remarkable feats of imaginative writing.

the Gormenghast trilogy is a triumph of the Gothic imagination. the climax of the events set in motion is the first book "Titus Groan" occurs here in the second volume. these books are slow in momentum like building a monstrous castle. the characters are grotesque, fascinating, and ultimately indelible. the villain of the piece is one of the most hateful characters ever created and his victims some of the most sympathetic. i strongly suggest these trade paperback editions over the omnibus volume as they stand up better to inevitable re-reading.
