I thank you for the recommendation but I'm sorry to say this book wasn't for me.

The author is undeniably imaginative, but the theme of every story seems to be the complete denial of human agency in some way or another. I don't find that interesting.

Besides that, our author has a problem with religious people. That would be fine if it didn't manifest in frequent, random asides that feel really petty and dated.

I read up to including "Axiomatic" and probably enjoyed the first story the most.
