The Crippled God - Chapter 20, Part 2

"Here is light. You will say that it is not a living entity, but you miss the point that it is more, not less. Without occupying space, it fills the universe. It nourishes everything, yet itself feeds upon destruction. We claim to control it, but does it not perhaps cultivate us as a source of food? May it not be that all wood grows so that it can be set ablaze, and that men and women are born to kindle fires?"
―Gene Wolfe, The Citadel of the Autarch

One of my all-time faves, of any book, ever written, ever.

Theorizing that one could poop within his own lifetime, Doctor Poopet led an elite group of scientists into the desert to develop a top secret project, known as QUANTUM POOP. Pressured to prove his theories or lose funding, Doctor Poopet, prematurely stepped into the Poop Accelerator and vanished. He awoke to find himself in the past, suffering from partial amnesia and facing a mirror image that was not his own. Fortunately, contact with his own bowels was made through brainwave transmissions, with Al the Poop Observer, who appeared in the form of a hologram that only Doctor Poopet could see and hear. Trapped in the past, Doctor Poopet finds himself pooping from life to life, pooping things right, that once went wrong and hoping each time, that his next poop will be the poop home.

Unbelievable to think this has been going on for four years now, sad to see it ending!

It's been great following it and reading the final few rereads of tCG it's made me want to pick up the series for another reread now!

I think the plan is to keep going with the Kharkanas trilogy.

Are they going to do the other ICE novels as well?

You'd assume so, they did the first three. Can't see why they would not also include OST, BnB and Assail. Although they might for variation throw FoD somewhere in the middle. It does somehow feel a bit anticlimactic though, having 3 ICE novels ahead when you just finished the real deal.

Yesterday, upon the stair, I saw a man who wasn't there. He wasn't there again today. Oh, how I wish he'd go away.
