"THIS SERIES IS TAKING ON ONE OF SF'S (AND MAYBE ALL OF LITERATURE'S) PRIMAL JOBS: THE CREATION OF A WORLD WITH THE SCALE AND COMPLEXITY OF THE REAL ONE." - Locus

A spectacular, vast galactic saga, THE REALITY DYSFUNCTION has won international acclaim, joining the sweeping epic tradition of the Foundation series, Dune and Hyperion. This is a stunning universe of Edenists, telepathically gene-linked to their sentient ships and living worlds; of nano-augmented star pilots and warriors... and of terrifying ancient alien mysteries beyond human comprehension.

DOMINOES OF THE DAMNED

A bizarre horror leapfrogs across the inhabited galaxy: an invading force that is part horde, part plague, part nightmare - and part prophecy. A deluge on entities able to posses minds, mutate flesh, warp matter, disrupt energy, and mock both science and faith. But the invaders aren't aliens. The Reality Dysfunction has opened a gate beyond life.

And the Damned are pouring through, to conquer space and time.

"ABSOLUTELY VINTAGE SCIENCE FICTION." - The Times (London)

I try to maintain page numbers for audiobooks even though obviously there aren't any. I do this to keep track of pages read and I try to use the Kindle version page numbers for this.
Synopses marked with an asterisk (*) were generated by an AI. There aren't a lot since this is an iffy way to do it - AI seems to make stuff up.
When specific publication dates are unknown (ie prefixed with a "Cir"), I try to get the publication date that is closest to the specific printing that I can.
When listing chapters, I only list chapters relevant to the story. I will usually leave off Author Notes, Indices, Acknowledgements, etc unless they are relevant to the story or the book is non-fiction.
Page numbers on this site are for the end of the main story. I normally do not include appendices, extra material, and other miscellaneous stuff at the end of the book in the page count.
