Metaphysical Fiction is a blog written by The Somnambulist that follows Dr. Malice as he takes part in The Side Bet, a portion of The Great Game that pits the Fears against each other, and the clock, as they attempt to kill him. It can be read here. The plot is heavily connected to Dawghouse and No God No Masters towards the end.
