The medication-induced nausea Amy suffers from is greatly downplayed in this book compared to previous entries, but several characters still stress-vomit from time to time.

[In general] A cult believes in the existence of "NPCs". While this refers to their belief the universe is a simulation, it reads very similarly to right-wing use of the term and is mostly used on female characters. [p.410-420] A character paraphrases their father's racist and sexist comments. [p.495-498] Graphic, sexist dialog from an antagonist.

As always for the series, it's unusual if someone in this book manages to get in a vehicle and *not* crash it. (Or joke about crashing it.) Amy, a main character, is also a car crash survivor and discusses the incident from time to time.

Several characters spend a chapter smoking weed near the climax of the book. Several cultists get high as part of a ritual. References are made to prescription medication abuse. A character accidentally takes a dose of a fictional, supernatural street drug that causes them to trip into another timeline.

As per usual, the book is written as if David is the author and is recalling a story from his own life (and trying to sell the audience shit). Several characters believe the universe to be a work of fiction, though they incorrectly assume it to be a video game and the protagonists do not take them seriously. The reader is an entity in the story, but it's difficult to notice.
