Weber, I have Mark Richard's Fishboy though I admit I never got round to reading it. Is it good?

I feel sure Ramsey has The Thickening – hence that enigmatic smile.

I've never got round to reading it either. It does sound intriguing though.

Nice idea, Weber. I'll get back to you.

I've just started dating a High Priestess of Thelema so my hands are a bit full at the minute.

I'll switch Fishboy for Team Rodent by Carl Hiaasen - a rather good polemic on the subject of the Disney corporation.

What's "The Thickening"? I can't find anywhere. Some old chapbook, I surmise...
