The review itself:

By creating Currently Untitled, Ian McLeod has brought to us the reality of two worlds in one: a man struggling to write & a stifled writer brooding due to his success. These two worlds, w/out having previously known one another, are brought by fellow characters to cross paths, allowing the story to unfold. Both have already succeeded in their individual fortunes, but the difference is one has a published book over which the populous is raving & the other aspires to have the same. The main character, Angus begins by greatly admiring who is in essence his opposite, the successful writer. When their paths cross, each world is subjected to ripples, which evolve into waves. By the conclusion of the story, one could say a tsunami is created, & unexpected chaos erupts. Upon its finish one may be stunned by the wild turn of events in how the two worlds clash together. What message is left by Ian’s story line leaves our minds to boggle. In the prequel: Dead Tree Version, we will no-doubt learn more about Darwin, who is the opposing character to Angus in Currently Untitled.
