The Suitcase Clone is a very trippy addition to the Penumbra verse. I wasn't expecting the narrator. I enjoyed the leaning into the magical element of magical realism, though I'm not sure I fully understand the basement scene. I did enjoy seeing how deep the roots of the culture reach, connecting together the people readers meet in Sourdough beyond what was on the page. I would like to go on an adventure like that which is explored in this novella.
