Between the pages of an ever-shifting eternal text known as the Patasphere, a coven of psychedelic fiction fanatics and a duo of agents working for a private intelligence firm known as The Geist, LLC navigate their ways simultaneously through a labyrinthian pilgrimage to the ole haunts of their favorite thoughtform, a cult classic weird fiction author named Rocco Atleby, who may or may not be both creator and destroyer of their world. Along the way, the coven and the duo encounter undulating tentacles, a magickal Parisian apartment, gobs and gobs of gooey living information known as plasmate, a smoke-filled Rocco-themed bar, the inexplicably resurfaced lost footage of a Rocco docutainment film, a music festival that evolves into an amorphous megabeast, and skeleton keys to the secrets of their Actuality in the form of enigmatic pieces of Rocco Atleby's iconography.
