    There Is No Antimemetics Division by Qntm

    How can one defeat an enemy when being aware of that enemy means
    you have already lost?

    Thank you for your review. (Shouldn't it be lower case q?)
    I have read the earlier version where the main protagonist is Marion and
    the Unknown Organisation is the SCP Foundation. As yet I do not know the differences in plot, emphasis or otherwise.
    I would classify it as horror fantasy rather than science fiction and
    struggle to give this version three stars. Uninteresting characters, dry presentation, excess repetition but really brilliant ideas and a good
    ending.
    I don't like horror much and would have preferred this more if novella
    length.
