Heh--which is probably why I like it more, since I'm a horror nut. But what really impressed me is how Takami managed to juggle such a HUGE cast of characters and give them all such detailed backstories and personalities. The only other writer I've seen do that effectively is Stephen King, and I looove Stephen King.
