   Hi Denizens of sf.written,   
      
   	Well I finished this about a day ago. If you are a fan of   
   Charles Stross's Laundry files or of amusingly eledritch horror   
   in general you won't want to  miss this.   
   	The American President has gone missing and the elder   
   god, the Black Pharoah who is ruling the UK. with the aid of   
   former Laundry members, tasks Mhaire who is more competent   
     than she knows to find our why and rescue the President.   
   	The American equivalent of the Laundry who are called by   
   the Laundry, "Nazgul" are trying to run Cuthlu.exe aka the   
     "Lord of Sleep" and wake that before the stars are absolutely   
   right. K parasites save the day but V parasites save the brain   
   for lunch.  Golly. it makes me glad I am not good at Math.   
   	No one in this is a good guy but many are team players.   
   	It seems to me to be the best story yet of the problems   
   in Callilng Up that which cannot be banished.   
   	Somewhat Fresh Horror!   
      
   	Not perhaps for kiddies due to language.   
      
   	But if you are over 18 you had better read it or   
   miss the chance, with censorship getting more   
   ridiculous every day.
