I reserved a copy at the library. Hopeful it will be good. The last one, The Book of Elsewhere, wasn't up to his standard IMO.

Tend to agree. I enjoyed the premise and the story overall, but I couldn't figure out how much of it was his, and how much his collaborators work. Some of the flashes of language were clearly his.

Reading Ballard's Kingdom Come at the moment, it's hard not to see it as a precursor to the resurgence of folk horror as a sub-genre that I'm seeing in British fiction right now.
