Tad Williams demonstrates again why he is considered one of the most original of epic fantasy authors around. Much like Otherland, the world presented here is unique and straight out of the amazing imagination of Williams. The War of the Flowers" is about a 30ish slacker wanna be rock star (lead singer only) named Theo Vilmos who's life is literally turned upside down when he is attacked by an undead thing and a six inch person with wings fights it off with a corkscrew while helping him escape to another world.

Tad Williams takes this unlikely hero and places him in the middle of a developing crisis between our world and Faery. This is a dark book, filled with vivid and strange places: the Faery realm is a warped reflection of our world. Originally published in 2003, I first bought this book the day it was released as a paperback.

Theo Vilmos is a thirty-year-old lead singer in a not terribly successful rock band. Once, he had enormous, almost magical charisma, both onstage and off—but now, life has taken its toll on Theo. Hitting an all-time low, he seeks refuge in a isolated cabin in the woods. While there, he reads an odd memoir written by a dead relative who believed he had visited the magical world of Faerie. And before Theo can disregard the account as the writings of a madman, he, too, is drawn to a place beyond his wildest dreams...a place that will be, and has always been, his destiny.
