Hes pretty much known for the Ambergris city setting and Finch continues the series. Finch centers around the kind of metaphysical detective endemic to the Cohen Brothers films, without the overt humor quotient paradox. Characters include a dead historian who isnt quite dead, “memory bulbs” that grow from the heads of dead people, and all manner of fungal felicities. A great, fast moving read.
