✨🌠 my about / byf / CW info carrd: uchiha-madara 🌠✨
its incredivly boring when sci fi books try to make absolutely convoluted analogistic terms that are impenetrable to parse for the sake of sounding futuristic.
"Oh the hypersmash triple fluid dynamo portentator is disfunctionated!!" no it's a space ship engine, and it's broken. If your world building was good you wouldn't have to resort to sending your lingo through google translate via 10 different languages.
at 2/3rds through i skipped to the last four chapters to see if it was a stupid "actually its not a dystopia the father kidnapped a kid and was living in the woods thw whole time!" twist. no its just bizarre dream shit.
I should've known it was stupid shit when it quoted some about missionaries colonizing indigenous nations for the epigraph.
minor cannibalism
medium death, body horror
major anti indigenous racism, missionaries,

Disappointing. It started off interesting, as I liked puzzling out what exactly was going on, but Crospinal quickly grew tiresome and I could barely stand him by the halfway point.

Weird.
There were many parts I liked, but I am certain I didn't follow any of the actual story line, whatever it was. It was definitely ethereal and eerie and I loved the feel of it, but I just finished it and I can't tell you anything that happened except what it said on the back of the book.
