Anthony Doeer's Cloud Cuckoo Land (2021) is a multi-stranded narrative based on a (invented?) Greek mythical tale; combining #scifi & historical fiction with a contemporary narrative, the tales intersect & intertwine to tell its story. Its a good idea & pretty readable but somehow it never quite engaged me. I felt like I was watching the fiction from outside, enjoying its mechanism(s) but not fully engrossed; good but not great!
