IIRC, When We Cease… was part fictional, but presented itself as fact. I remember being pretty annoyed when I eventually realized this (though possibly it was obvious all along and I was just being dumb).
When reading The MANIAC I knew it was historical fiction going in, but in certain parts when I had doubts I researched them. While the author dramatizes the point for the story most likely, the point was generally accurate.

I’m not sure it presented itself as fact, but it definitely blurs the line and it’s not obvious. I still found the stories highly engaging!
