A bit hard to follow at times, but the overall story about technology taking over humanity was great. I give it 4 stars simply because of the author's creativity and you can tell he wrote it as it flowed from his mind to the page. The Velacarousel was my favorite creature in this book and I could completely see it in my mind. Very creepy.
The first 4-5 chapters started out super strong, then the structure of things started to come apart towards the end. I loved how Besonen explores the role of technology in our lives, as well as a new “origin story” of life. Sometimes I can have trouble following sense sci fi or cosmic horror tales, but Besonen gives you just enough details and boundaries of the world that’s created that it had my buy in instantly. I would definitely be interested in reading more stories about the world of Nephaniel!
Perfect on its own or to tie up the loose ends of the previous 2 stories this has been my favorite read by Christopher Besonen to date and look forward to reading more from this author!!!
A very unique and creative sci-fi story! It had a decent amount of gore and a crazy storyline of humans, robots and Earth(s). The story contained different times and spaces. Because there was a lot going on, I did find some parts difficult to follow. Definitely a complex and interesting story!
It had really catch my attention whit the cult at the start. Then I fall in the rabbit hole it was creepy to follow the timeline of technology. Overall it was interesting story.
