Did you get an advance copy?
I did get my hands on an advance copy, but I won't be starting it until tonight. So not much of a head start.

I'll be finishing my current read today or tomorrow. I have a stack waiting for me on the shelf that I'm excited to get to. But Devil House might just have to jump the line.

Uses game theory and science to show that our senses and mental frameworks were selected for fitness, not truth, and in fact they don't even accidentally give us reality at all. It's very Kantian and Spinozist. He claims it's not, strictly speaking, panpsychism, but I'm not sure why. Very good.

I've read both of his other novels and I like his band a lot. His other novels are great.
