Loving the good old noir/detective angle for continuing to explore Ambergris. Leaves lots of room for things to keep getting weirder. Hoping they do!

The audio format really calls attention to certain authorial tics, like in this case, the noir- writer's habit of subject-free sentence fragments appearing as sentences, usually several in a row. It's getting a little irritating. Even Hammett and Chandler only used them sparingly, I think, but here it's all "Washed his hands. Looked in the mirror. Spat in the sink. Coughed up some phlegm." Etc.
