Book: QNTM's "There Is No Antimemetics Division"

Book eight of the year was an odd one.  QNTM's "There is no Antimemetics Division" feels like a slightly disjointed collection of short stories that generate a complete, fleshed out storey of  war.

An antimeme is an idea that self censors.  As soon as you see/hear/sense it, you are unable to remember it.  We discover there are whole civilisations and wildlife that have evolved antimemetic camouflage that you forget about as soon as it is learned.  How do you fight a war when you don't even know it is happening?

The stories feel independent to some extent but the characters flow from one story to another.  What the characters know or not know changes as time passes.  The result is a fascinating telling of an original story.  Having said this, Doctor Who had a storyline about a race known as the Silence who you forget about as soon as they got out of sight i.e. antimemetic camouflage.

I gave this book a rare five stars out of five on Goodreads as it was well written and it felt very original.
