“More or less” requires unpacking approximately equal in length to the novel, but the non-sentience of the vampires is weakly implied, (spoiler) juvyr gur aba-fragvrapr bs gur nyvraf gurl zrrg vf rkcyvpvg naq abg ng nyy zrgnculfvpny.
I thought it was more implied by the ending, myself. (Does Blindsight really need spoilers ROT13ing? I mean, the book is right there for anyone to read.)
The fact of information being available does not make it known. Billions of people have never read The Woman in White by Wilkie Collins, despite it being freely available in most places around the world, for example. The use of spoilers is not to protect the copyright of the writers, but to protect the surprise of the readers when they discover what has been written.
I lack conscious awareness.
There, do you regard me as a p-zombie now?

Nearly everything else that people do not want spoilers for is right there for anyone to consume. I do not think that is the point...
RobinZ seconded… I may go read both these stories due to this thread and I’d prefer not to see spoilers.
By the way: if you like The Woman in White, try also The Moonstone. Those two are Wilkie Collins’ famous stories.
