About this ebook

A dark jewel of a novella, this definitive edition of Caitlín R. Kiernan’s Black Helicopters is the expanded and completed version of the World Fantasy Award–nominated original.

Just as the Signalman stood and faced the void in Agents of Dreamland, so it falls to Ptolema, a chess piece in her agency’s world-spanning game, to unravel what has become tangled and unknowable.

Something strange is happening on the shores of New England. Something stranger still is happening to the world itself, chaos unleashed, rational explanation slipped loose from the moorings of the known. Two rival agencies stare across the Void at one another. Two sisters, the deadly, sickened products of experiments going back decades, desperately evade their hunters.

An invisible war rages at the fringes of our world, with unimaginable consequences and Lovecraftian horrors that ripple centuries into the future.

Interesting. Tries hard. Ultimately not as clever as the Delta Green novels because it tries too hard and inwardly fragments too much. There is a chapter, two characters talking, where the characters speak - and speak a lot - in French. Hope you can speak French too. Is that exposition important, who knows? It tries harder than I was willing to - but I wondered what language they'll speak if there is a French language version of the book, or maybe all the other characters will still speak English in it?
