I loved IJ. The Eschaton game is hilarious. A lot of the book is very funny.
Part of the fun for me in IJ that might go by someone else is the
injection of some very real descriptions of real places in a story
that contains much that is absurd and fantastical.
I used to work on Rugg Rd where people lived and sold drugs out of campers.
