Komrade's Reviews > Fourth Mansions

Some very fantastical ideas (the Harvestmen, the brain weave, the 4 archetypes), and a very thin plot that doesn't go anywhere. Even as a philosophical novel, it's not very good.
(view spoiler)[
A world-ending serpent has escaped? Oh well, no big deal.
The Harvestmen are killing people off? Nobody cares
Miguel Fuentes has started an armed revolt? No time for that, gotta figure out who Carmody Overlark is.
