"New Weird" descendants
 

@megapolisomancy at bluesky:
Let's say a person wanted to avoid other essays they were writing and started thinking about the current wave of New Weird descendants. Mordew, The Works of Vermin, Dawnhounds, the Tyrant Philosophers, City of Glass, what else? Maybe the Locked Tomb. Weird fiction in secondary cities, what've we got

Saint of Bright Doors
Gogmagog
West Passage
The Book Censor's Library
Owlish
Oh God the Sun Goes (secondary City of the Mind)
Unknown Language

Abigail Nussbaum:
The West Passage has got this, especially if you assume that the New Weird derives from Peake the way a lot of other fantasy derives from Tolkien.
