Title: Pandemonium (by Daryl Gregory)

Anyone read this yet? It's a meta-fiction novel that discusses SF and fantasy genre issues, against a storyline about possession and unconditional love. Fantastic book, I highly recommend it.

I have, I really enjoyed it. A lot of fun and particularly impressive since its his debut novel. It's also the first book I've read where one of the characters uses an internet meme in passing conversation with another character. That made me snicker.

I thought it was excellent.  I really enjoyed The Devil's Alphabet too.  This is definitely an author who is on my radar.
