If you like challenging science fiction, then Jeff Noon is the author for you. Pollen is the sequel to Vurt (winner of the Arthur C. Clarke award), and both are concerned with a world in which dreams, drug-induced hallucination, and reality become completely intermingled. In this volume, the dream world unleashes a pollen that threatens to cause people in the real world to sneeze to death. Pollen is Jeff Noon's second trip to the world of Vurt, and it is a worthy successor to the modern classic. With enough lightly veiled references to his previous novel to keep fans happy, and a story line that you can go away humming. So, the 64 million dollar question, is it a better book than Vurt? No. Sorry. Jeff Noon's "Pollen" is written in a very nebulous, stream-of-consciousness POV. It's one of those writing styles that requires you to chew on them for a bit until you figure out how to activate the flavor crystals. The world is dense and brimming with layers, hybrid human/animal/plant characters, and a mutliplicity of 'dimensions'.
