Review: This was like Alice in Wonderland dropped acid with Ayahuasca. What begins as a fairly normal SciFi novel, quickly morphs into something that bridges the past into the fantasical present. It just seems plausible with the back story rendered in the sublime, that talking societal beavers and huge moths used for travel is granted freedom to happlily co-exist within your mind. Wizards that can craft a human body for a talking possum is a logical process when you accept the inception event that made it possible.
The diverse character presentation was the most riveting part of this novel. Every turn in the story line is met with a different persona/being and culture. The twists are sudden and delightful.
The writing is superb. Most of the novel is written from the perspective of the Chronicler. An AI that resides within Ariel, gathering knowledge and providing insights. The world building is like a better version of Alice that embraces the authentic. There is some blah, blah carbon counting science speculation. Most of Earth would have to be bog for that theory to work.
This novel is a fantastic read. GET IT!
Rating: 4.7/5
