I have just aquired a copy of "A Feast Unknown" by Farmer, and have set
it aside after the first two chapters. Frankly, I was so disturbed by what
I had read, I don't think I can finish it. Can anyone out there tell me
if the remainder of this book has any redeeming value? Is it worth wading
through the extremely sadistic sex and violence to finish it. I am not
normally prudish about either sex or violence in books or movies, but this
thing has really grossed me out.

Comments?
