Wow, that was so wonderfully clever! And I do love the idea of a band of heroes needing a clean-up crew.

What did I miss in this story? It was fun (I love how Lynch basically does literary DnD), but I lost of track near the end of whether there was a coherent thread holding all the vignettes together. What's going on in the second last section? Maybe I lost it because I read this very late at night... Will have to try again in the daytime...

Okay, Scot Lynch... You've read Merlin Sheldrake's ENTANGLED LIFE, haven't you. Love your snippet
