A timid middle-aged shopkeeper finds himself the owner of an artifact crafted from solid time. The son of Zeus works as a barista. Rival hardware warehouses on Wellington Road march inexorably to war. Forces beyond our comprehension gather at the kebab shop.

In celebration of the publication of Clocks and Boxes, the second book in the series; I've marked down the first book Mysterious Aisles.

  3. Not all #suburbia is #sprawl, but far too much of it is. The defining characteristic of #SuburbanSprawl is car-dependency, which results from bad decisions around density, land-use, budgeting, design, infrastructure etc.

    #Suburbs don’t have to be car-dependant. We’ve just chosen to make them that way so far. We can do suburbs differently.

  8. The average INDIVIDUAL U.S. resident now has as much living space in their home as entire families shared in the 1950s. That’s 3X as much space per person.
