Details
he Engklimastat is Mark Henderson’s second novel and in every way a worthy successor to his critically acclaimed National Cake Day in Ruritania. The Engklimastat combines believable characters (even the demon Hypostates) with fast-moving drama and sheer hilarity. Henderson’s logic (and this story is nothing if not logical) leads to bizarre and yet inevitable consequences. What would happen to a society in which crime was inconceivable? Find out by following the malevolent yet oddly sympathetic Hypostates as he manipulates Solomon Threep and Theresa Greene who have nothing with which to fight back; they don’t even know what is being done to them. In a nerve-racking escalation of tension, the story sweeps on to its unexpected and yet wholly logical and ultimately satisfying conclusion.
