"We are a dream," whispered Tevanne. "A half thing. An unfinished work."

Sancia Grado/Berenice Grimaldi- The Foundryside Trilogy
Shara Wheeler/Chloe Green - I Kissed Shara Wheeler
Character, book, and author names under the cut
Foundryside is already an unhinged trilogy but Locklands is absolutely the greatest example of this.
You have the tragic lesbians, the traumatized middle-aged woman, the sapient key, the former ray of sunshine, and the godlike being with near-absolute power over reality.
All of them except for the godlike being are in a hivemind together.
The key is the god’s absent father who is being haunted by his dead wife.
They are trying to break into the backrooms of the universe before a different, eviller hivemind does.
What the fuck is happening.
You can always count on Robert Jackson Bennett to come up with a strange reason to introduce animals in his fantasy worlds
The Founders trilogy?
Gray monkeys who have a "fun" life because humans are shitty magicians
Shadow of the Leviathan series ?
Sloths who are magically enlarged and used to transport things because humans are lazy
I have my own little side quest while reading his books: to find how people torment animals in this particular world
Locklands is one of those books that makes me really think about how we experience books because 90% of it was good, not great but good, and then the last 10% sent me into a haze and made me rethink my entire life in a way no book has done before or since.

"Yeah," he said. "That's how we all think of ourselves, as people in a tale. Living our stories. But if you long enough, you see it's not a story at all. it just keeps going. People come and go, like butterflies in the wind. Cruelties don't always meet justice. And maybe you'll never meet the end you wanted, or expected, or deserve. Maybe you'll never meet an end at all. Eventually, you're just left with scraps. Pieces of unfinished stories. Threads of tales no one ever got to live." He knelt down to peer into the pipe, and when he spoke again his words echoed softly. "Pieces of works you never got to perfect." - Locklands, Robert Bennett Jackson
Oh nooo. I think i just had a bad realization. I think Valeria, pre-heirophantic fuckery, was Claviedes's wife/partner and Crasedes Magnus's mother. Because Sancia just saw Gregor's visage lurking behind her in the semi-permeable reality around the nasty lexicon Tevanne made for Crasedes' prison. Just like Clef has been seeing a beautiful blonde woman or a disfigured white haired woman.
Good gravy. I think i'm team Valeria for erasing scriving cuz we humans sure do some terrible fucked up shit with it.
Do you ever finish reading a book and feel the ending changing who you are as a person? Read the epilogue and realize you can never go back to who you were before you started the book? No, can't go back to who you were five minutes ago, before the epilogue began, before the revelations of this world that this author has placed in front of you became clear?
