I've finished: Rakesfall by Vajra Chandrasekera

Rakesfall is a work of art, it requires experience in order to appreciate it. This is not a novel I will gift to friends that are not deep into Sci-Fi.

I was able to grasp that I was looking at something beautiful, but I needed the final chapter to understand much of what Vajra Chandrasekera was aiming at.

Rakesfall proposes a cosmology that integrates mythology and technology. It involves possession, gods, demons, time travel and a multiverse, and it takes us all the way from colonial history to the heat death of the universe.

Yet, it is very much a novel of our time, of the powerful, the greedy and corrupt who wish to attain godhood and those who will oppose them.

Astounding vol. 42, no. 6 (February 1949)

Yeah no idea what's going on here, it's all a little mad. What are those three disks? Are those space-text-messages supposed to be literal, as in, he can see them floating in space? Or less literal, like he can hear them or see them on a console but they're reproduced for us?
