Has anyone read and would recommend “Sea of Poppies” by Amitav Ghosh

Was scanning this review of the second book, made me a bit interested.

I knew that name was familiar - I did a google and he wrote The Glass Palace, which I did read. As I recall it was a sort of epic tale - not bad, but I'm not sure it would be up there as one of my top favorites. Not sure about Sea of Poppies - I'll have a look when I have time for a new book :)
