Cthulhu. In this novel, there is no Cthulhu. But everything else, I suppose, is here. Oh yes—there’s also no Internet; it was banned by Inseki! And there are no Moons, because they broke into pieces. Above Earth now there is a Lunar Ring with the two largest fragments—Selene and Diana.
But everyone has already gotten used to it. Besides, now there are little crystals—things the Vendors can sell anything for. Even a Mona Lisa. Or two Mona Lisas—both real, the same as in the Louvre.
A pretty good start to the apocalypse, isn’t it?
