Charlie Stross has been such a disappointment over the past couple of years. Have you tried reading any of his most recent Laundry novels?

Sorry for the tangent, but I just recently started getting into the Laundry Files (as in, like, literally just finished "The Atrocity Archives" last week), and your comment makes me wonder if there's some point in the list of titles that you would recommend stopping.

I missed the Laundry Files restarting and downloaded his two new ones last year. Christ. The first book has a trans character (a FTM teenager) which I rolled with, but in the second book he specifically depicts Mumsnet as colluding with the weird American religious cult on human sacrifices.

Yes Charlie you plonker, British mothers worried about the suitability of self ID and paediatric sex change are definitely just exactly like an authoritarian US Christian right. ItтАЩs just a bit rich coming from the man who wrote Equoid, yтАЩknow.
