Yes, I've read FotH. I'm from Upstate NY and I've spent time at Cornell, but I never saw rats with swords or a Tolkien-themed fraternity.
If Philip K. Dick watched a lot of Buffy, then a few episodes of X-files and Alias, what genre would that be? Neal Stephenson's blurb calls it: "Fast. Wicked. Scarily clever, and equally fun for those who like thrillers and those who don't."
It has elements of lots of things, but most of all it's Matt Ruff. It's HarperCollins. I've loaned it to another Ruff fan but I can probably re-snag it eventually and get it to you, if that's helpful.
