Hunters & Collectors

At first I was like: what the hell did I just read O_o

There's really nothing I can compare H&C to. It's like a book equivalent of the International Assassin episode of The Leftovers (incidentally my favourite episode of television in probably ever) but even that's a stretch because H&C is a hell of a lot crazier.

But it's also so good it almost made me pass on in-flight entertainment (I paused reading it only once about halfway through the 7h flight to watch Lethal Weapon, after which Dr Rubin had Gary Busey's face). This is the absolute pinnacle of compliments in my toolkit.
