![]() ![]() I was surprised to see on goodreads that HB Morris is female. There was something almost gratuitous about it, yet it worked for me. One aspect of the book I liked was its libidinal aspect, at least from a male perspective – cute girls, fast and expensive sports cars, and Pyle’s amazing estate. The novel follows him for a while, then jumps to each of the other winners, then to Pyle, and his butler, and back to Levy, and so on. He’s a care-free bloke with several girlfriends and a healthy libido. ![]() All three get some play, but one, Nathan Levy, seems the novel’s main character. The plot centers on a contest sponsored by a Professor Pyle, a Nobel-winning, billionaire eccentric who invites its three winners to his incredible estate. Genie-Alogy, by HB Morris, is an amalgam of odd parts that don’t totally cohere. ![]() They say you can’t tell a book by its cover, but the cover of mine, with its photo of a handsome, bare shouldered guy, definitely hinted at the contents. ![]()
