Read Chapter Seven

This is also mentioned over on the "what it's all about" page, but Little, Brown has placed the full text of chapter seven, one of my favorites, online to give a flavor for the book. It features, in blockbusting action, all those beloved Burning Man staples: menacing flame cannons fighting giant balls of ice; raves and their discontented; art cars; comedic fantasies, wild and dangerous tomfoolery; irrestible inspirations; and a Jorge Luis Borges reference.
