All the rage and Infernal

In the paperback edition of All the Rage on pg 116 (3rd line from the bottom,) the book mentions "Jacob Prather and his 'Infernal Machine.'"

We know that Jacob's son is connected to the Otherness, but I'm just wandering if it has any connection to the machines mentioned in Infernal or was it all just a coincidence.

Good catch.

Just finished Infernal.

There's always been a picture in my mind of Jack. It's hard to picture him with an older brother that looks just like him but heavier with a complexion stemming from too much drug use and alcohol use. *grin*

From here on in, there will be no coincidences! Smile
