Why read it?
1 author picked Bandersnatch as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

This book even showed me how I could personally become an inkling, and join forces with other creative, and inspired writers to create a new world all our own.
From Angela's list on historical fantasy with twists on Arthurian legend.
