Fourth Mansions

More strange and interesting than "good", it's definitely worth experiencing. There isn't really any "science fiction" here. Rather, it's a surrealist-psychedelic fantasy in the vein of The Man Who Was Thursday and The Illuminatus! Trilogy (though not as good as either of them). Christian mysticism, secret societies and conspiracies, symbols piled on top of symbols, wild and unexpected plot developments, and a unique style to top things off.

Yeah, I think the word for this one is "nuts". My 2¢ is that top-tier Lafferty includes Arrive at Easterwine, Past Master, and The Fall of Rome. but not Fourth Mansions.
