In the gripping, thrilling, and utterly bizarre finale to Ian McLeod's Darwin Trilogy, we find Our Hero, John Madison Darwin, in deep trouble after the events of CURRENTLY UNTITLED. To make matters worse, his madcap entourage of minions, friends, and cohorts are each faced with their own difficulties, ranging from espionage within a publishing company, to arguing the finer points of theology, to running afoul of the Russian Mob. The story culminates in an action-packed series of unlikely and horrible events beyond the control of Our Hero, but in some way related to the publication of his now-world-famous novel, [redacted]. As he himself is helpless to stop the endless onslaught, Carrie, Natalia, Donovan, and the rest must use all their wit and cunning to stop the threats against them...only to make matters worse. In this satirical, parodic portrait of 21st century existential schizophrenia (caused, of course, by excessive exposure to media and pop-subculture), you, brave reader, will find action, thrills, misplaced romance, gratuitous violence and language, car chases, metaphysical ennui, dei-ex-machina (plural!), sociopolitical commentary, stereotyping, even fourth-wall-breaking terrors from the Id...the author even breaks the one rule to writing a good novel that most postmodernists haven't even dared to break--and does so repeatedly, just for a laugh. The only thing left out was the kitchen sink...and that was just an oversight.
