23. Green Lantern: Sleepers, Volume 3, by Christopher J. Priest

The final volume in an epic trilogy, Sleepers, Book 3 features Hal Jordan, the most famous of Earth's modern-day Green Lanterns. Hal has been stripped of his powers, but it is up to him to fight the clones of the villain Sinestro, set loose by actions in the trilogy's first volume. In order to save the Earth, he may have to sacrifice himself by taking the Sinestro power rings on a one-way trip to the anti-matter universe.

I found this book hard to get into (maybe I would have liked it better if I'd read the first two books, but this was what the library had, so this was what I checked out). There were a lot of pop culture references that dated the book. I managed to finish it, but it just didn't click for me.


"Oh, you can’t help that," said the Cat: "we’re all mad here. I’m mad. You’re mad."
"How do you know I’m mad?" said Alice.
"You must be," said the Cat, "or you wouldn’t have come here.”
