During the hourly wake of the city's mourners,
I escaped
to where none of us dared venture,
with the gynandromorphophile's long shadow
over my shoulder,
I escaped
to where no other nectar but yours—the XY-code's,
was harvested by the drones…
We always found ourselves in Magdalena, a quaint, abandoned town nestled far in the western reaches, Lya and I, as we ventured into the Spree. I didn’t know why. And I had never really thought about it. Until now…
In the neon-lit sprawl of tomorrow, I'll hoist
the milky-white rose
of synthetic essence—its fragrant code will weave
through the data stream, perfuming
the holonight's
Pro-Rata enthymeme
with sweet binary echoes of virtual "Qui Vive."

I’m disappointed in Christopher Paolini. Both books in the Fractalverse series turn into a long slog of misery and character torture. I don’t want to slog through upwards of 1/3rd of the book just being depressed, harmed, and mangled characters.
To Sleep in a Sea of Stars and Fractal Noise have a lot of interesting ideas. But they don’t carry the story. I can’t recommend his work anymore. In fact I actively advise you to avoid it. I don’t know if he’s trying to be dark and gritty, or if he’s just in a deep dark place, but it’s ugly, near saw level torture porn.
Recently finished "Not A Good Fit At this Time" by Adam Hulse and had a blast with it. Check out my Goodreads review for details but fans of horror, science fiction, and dark fantasy should absolutely give it a read!

A SURREAL POST-APOCALYPTIC SETTING lends power to this dreamlike retelling of Macbeth. Hallucinatory, atmospheric prose captures the point of view of a man pushed to his limits with no options but to fight. B PLUS
The Sirens of Titan by Kurt Vonnegut (1922–2007). Cover Art for the 1959 Dell first paperback printing, and the frontispiece for the 1990 Masterpieces of Science Fiction series from The Easton Press by Richard M. Powers (1921-1996). Plus an amusing note from Vonnegut about Powers.
