Castro Smith finds himself imprisoned within the mysterious Power Station, writing his Book of Forks while navigating baffling daily meetings with Poly, a troubled young woman who may be his teacher, his doctor, his prison guard... or something else entirely. Meanwhile, back home, Vera and Scarper's search for their missing friend takes them through the chaotic war zone of the Bear Park and into new and terrifying worlds. Rob Davis completes his abstract adventure trilogy by stepping inside Castro's disintegrating mind to reveal the truth about the history of the world, the meaning of existence, and the purpose of kitchen scales.
Furiously original and over-flowing with innovation and offbeat ideas, The Book of Forks, like it's predecessors, is a visual feast as well as a banquet for the grey matter. Captivating and borderline enchanting, I thought this was a luminescent black-and-white treat, and a sterling closing chapter to The Motherless Oven Trilogy. Rob Davis is an unorthodox wizard of invention, and this trilogy could very well be his career masterpiece. Read Full Review
