Gnomon strikes me as an almost fantastically perfect balance of pure entertainment, social commentary via science fiction, and philosophical investigation of the nature and worth of storytelling. I think it bridges gaps between headier literature literature like Borges, Calvino, Eco and Pynchon, reality testing Scifi cinema (The Matrix, Dark City, Inception), and comic book meta-pulp like The Invisibles, Promethea, or Cerebus. I hope a broad readership isn't daunted by its fantastical settings, general length, or multi-strand story structure, because for all that I think Gnomon is a quite warm, humane, and utterly thrilling story.
