A sticky-fingered brewer locates himself in a untidy situation following the theft of the mutated normal water lily and a botched matrimony proposal end with him defecating significant amounts of stable gold. Thrust in to the limelight, the son draws unwanted attention from around the world as people scramble to understand the enigmatic philosopher's natural stone. Add in a heroin-addicted best bud, a psychic medicine trafficker, a power-lifting sweetheart, a reclusive botanist focusing on psilocybin, and a well-intentioned cop, and growth: The Philosopher's Weight. If Bukowski or Burroughs have been as inspired by bizarro fiction and Dungeons & Dragons as these were booze and dope, this would be the kind of fiction they'd have written. Knowledge fiction? Not quite. Urban fantasy? There's no vampire/werewolf/teenage love triangle. Contemporary fantasy? You are getting warmer. Supernatural offense thriller? Bingo. Chock filled with drugs, violence, terrible antiheroes, and villains who are even worse, The Philosopher's Weight is fast-paced genre fiction for listeners sick and tired of the same old same old.
