Eloy Urroz's novels are known for their complex structures and forms. Barbara Hoffert, writing in a starred review for Library Journal, praises Urroz's "fluid, propulsive language and passionate exploration of ideas." In an interview with Theodore McDermott, Urroz said this about his own writing: "Every novel is different. I don’t like to repeat myself. I don’t believe in formula. I just want to challenge myself. I don’t have preconceived ideas. I never know why I have to write what I write about—I just do it."
