Review: The Gamekeeper's Night Dog

I know people who really, really like bulldogs, and they would probably say this is going too far.

Also reminds me a bit of the B-plot in Boris Akunin's "Pelagia and the White Bulldog", where a family is obsessed with breeding a Russian white bulldog to the point of ignoring murders and intrigue going on around them.
 
That's certainly an original take on alternate history.

The plot revolves around David Banner, an 1891 gamekeeper who receives a dream vision from the Judeo-Christian God that resides in the black hole at the center of the Milky Way.
Shouldn't that be "the Abrahamic God"?

The last of the Bulldogs (the word is always capitalized throughout the book) is Lockjaw, who will serve as the Adam to a revival of his breed and one of the book's other main characters.
I take it this is a reference to the Marvel character of the same name:
