This read from  Ghost Cities should not be considered typical of the whole novel which is a vast, sprawling  array of characters and situations. Even the author himself has said he is not sure where it came from or exactly what it all means! It’s an entertaining launch into another world, based partly on the uninhabited mega cities of China and spans across empires of the ages.
