I thought the novel had a lot of potential but I was confused throughout (see Douglas Clegg's I Come When You Call Me) and it was not a satisfying read. Mr. Hands, however, was very good and the prologue was way too long. I appreciated the addition of Kiss of the Mudman as it was unlikely to see print since its original incarnation.

I find it amusing that anyone who disagrees with a review immediately calls my intellect into question. I may criticize an author's work, but at no point do I make it personal by resorting to name-calling. “Animal-unfriendly” in what happens to some of man’s best friends, not “animal-unfriendly” as to Braunbeck’s personal views.

I read Keepers, and it's the most pro-animal-rights book I've read in a long time. And the narrative wasn't muddled -- maybe you weren't smart enough to understand it. Seriously, dude, you should work on the ol' reading comprehension before you call yourself a book reviewer. Animal-unfriendly? WTF?
