That's even better! Like, up until you start seeing/hearing about the truly whacked out shit in the world of the game, I just assumed it was more or less like the real world and all the weird names were just the result of Harry's binge drinking and drug use. Once you start getting more info, though, it starts to become extremely interesting.

Did some searching, the guy is Robert Kurvitz and he’s only written the one book, Sacred and Terrible Air. It never got an official translation, but there’s two independent translations. I would go for the one that didn’t get machine translated and intensively rewritten several times lmao
