Listened to this as an audiobook by Snow Munkey Asmr on yt  based on a fan translation afaik and he made this really enjoyable. I loved the voice acting in Disco Elysium a lot, so this was honestly perfectly suited for the audio book format. 

Sacred and Terrible Air is set some time after Disco Elysium in thd same universe, so no familiar characters. Dense, terrifying and deeply atmospheric. I looooved the sections about the Pale. 

Essentially a philosophical missing persons novel, with some cosmic horror
