I read CROYD and [its successor?] DR. ORPHEUS a dozen years ago and remember them both as very strange. I wouldn't condemn them out of hand; after all, a lot of people like Christopher Priest's work. I haven't read the work mentioned (and probably won't), but I wouldn't be surprised at people finding it unreadable. For something more digestible, try DEATHSTAR VOYAGE. Still a strange mood, but much less entangled, perhaps because he sat down and figured out some plausible rules for psychokinetic techniques, then worked them into the story.
