Any new book by Tim Powers is a treat. He's dredged up a bunch of old Hollywood history and some interesting occult "spiders", drawings that enable time transport.
But, it's not Power's best book. I enjoyed it but wasn't gripped by it. Power's signature move is alternate histories that dovetail with real history, and Medusa's Web only has a touch of that. Powers fans will enjoy it. But if you've not read Powers before, try Last Call or Declare first.
