  • Titus is expected to rule this extraordinary kingdom and his eccentric and wayward subjects. But with the arrival of an ambitious kitchen boy, Steerpike, the established order is thrown into disarray. Over the course of these three novels—Titus Groan, Gormenghast, and Titus Alone—Titus must contend with a kingdom about to implode beneath the weight of centuries of intrigue, treachery, manipulation, and murder.
  • Intoxicating, rich, and unique, The Gormenghast Trilogy is a tour de force that ranks as one of the twentieth century's most remarkable feats of imaginative writing. This special edition, published for the centenary of Mervyn Peake's birth, is accompanied by over one hundred of Peake's dazzling drawings.

I'm reading Titus Groan right now! Definitely not going to be everyone's cup of tea. It reads easily and feels very modern. . .but it's very deliberate (or slow, depending on the reader). I'm enjoying it though.

I forced myself to get through Titus Groan, but it was a slog. It felt like 400 pages of idiosyncratic character sketches before anything happens. Then it ends.

I got about 2 chapters into Gormenghast and it looked to be more of the same, so I stopped.
