Occult BEM
3 stars
What a curious gem of a book densely packed with oblique quotes from occult tablets and tomes all refluffed into bug-eyed 1963 tropey SF! Page after page straight out of emerald tablet and its ilk. All stuffed into an actually good story with great warm caring characters (CW well-meaning ableism that was pretty hard to get through). Dinged for initially using weird framework as a tension driver but to my delight it was read by boardgaming's darling, Eric Summerer! I didn't know he did audio books! Although it was hard to hear it was him because he got deep into character, really elevating the main guy.
