"My name is Stephen Leeds, and I'm perfectly sane. My hallucinations, however, are all quite mad."


Brilliant. This is just brilliant. And cool. Very cool.

Do I really have to review this story? It's too awesome for words. You really should just read it.
“Your hallucination . . .� “Yes?� “Your hallucination has hallucinations.� “Yes.� She settled back, looking disturbed.
Brandon Sanderson I love you. The premise of this story is pure genius.
“I’m not a hallucination,� J.C. snapped. “I have state-of-the-art stealthing equipment.�
Legion is about insanity, religion, science, faith� and a very special camera. Mix it all up, shake well, add a good dose of humour, a dash of action and voilà!
“The truth is, Monica, I don’t want any of this. I’d gladly be free of it, so that I could live a more simple life. I sometimes think the lot of them will drive me insane.� “You . . . aren’t insane, then?� “Heavens no,� I said.
The "lot of them"? The aspects! J.C. the trigger-happy navy seal (I think I'm in love), Ivy the trypophobic therapist, Tobias the schizophrenic historian, Armando the megalomaniac emperor� I love them all.
“I'm not going more mad,� I said. “I've stabilized. I'm practically normal. Even my non-hallucinatory psychiatrist acknowledges that.�
This was good. Really good. So do yourself a favour and read it.
