Sins Of Omission? - Discussing Neal Stephensons Polostan - Bomb Light #1 Raf Blutaxt 2024-10-16 | After getting climate change solutions wrong, Neal Stephenson returns to historical fiction. Arguably his strongest field of writing with Cryptonomicon and the Baroque Cycle, I was excited to find out what he does in Polostan, the first novel in a new series about the development of the first atomic bombs. I enjoyed the book but there are some issues that are partly due to Stephenson's way of writing and partly with the format of historical fiction and series. So I try to explain these issues in the hopes that some of you may disagree with me and write me angry comments to drive up engagment.

A Post-Cyberpunk Redemption Arc? - Discussing Ian McDonalds Scissors Cut Paper Wrap Stone Raf Blutaxt 2024-09-25 | Scissors Cut Paper Wrap Stone is one of Ian McDonald's shortest novels (it may even be a very long novella) but it manages to pack quite the punch nevertheless. Moving beyond the 1980s cyberpunk conventions it is post-cyberpunk in some sense and in some very specific ways it can be read as a reply or at least alternative way forward compared to Neal Stephenson's Snow Crash. I try to explore these elements and hope y'all go and read this book, spread the word and hopefully tell me your thoughts in the comments.Support me on Patreon: patreon.com/rafblutaxtBuy me a beer: paypal.me/rafblutaxtI don't have a Discord server of my own but I mostly hang out on this one if you wanna talk about my stuff: discord.gg/rTGGZMJListen to John and me ramble about metal-adjacent things: metalindustrialcomplex.buzzsprout.comWatch my very few pictures on Instagram: instagram.com/rafblutaxtRead my very few tweets: twitter.com/rafblutaxtFollow me on Bluesky: https://www.bsky.app/profile/rafblutaxtSend me an e-mail: raf.blutaxt@gmail.comBuy heavy metal from me: rafchildrecords.bandcamp.comWatch me fail at keeping track of my books: goodreads.com/rafblutaxt#booktube #booktuber #cyberpunk #japan #science-fiction #spirituality

I Love A Book That Made The World Worse - Discussing Neal Stephensons Snow Crash Raf Blutaxt 2024-09-20 | Neal Stephenson's Snow Crash is arguably one of the most influential science-fiction novels of the last thirty years. But with great impact comes great responsibility, for ordnance as well as for books and I argue that Snow Crash might be somewhat less than a laser-guided precision smartbomb in that regard. It is the perfect example for a specific type of sf however, written for a specific kind of reader and I try to explain that and explore why I love this book despite its many flaws.Support me on Patreon: patreon.com/rafblutaxtBuy me a beer: paypal.me/rafblutaxtI don't have a Discord server of my own but I mostly hang out on this one if you wanna talk about my stuff: discord.gg/rTGGZMJListen to John and me ramble about metal-adjacent things: metalindustrialcomplex.buzzsprout.comWatch my very few pictures on Instagram: instagram.com/rafblutaxtRead my very few tweets: twitter.com/rafblutaxtFollow me on Bluesky: https://www.bsky.app/profile/rafblutaxtSend me an e-mail: raf.blutaxt@gmail.comBuy heavy metal from me: rafchildrecords.bandcamp.comWatch me fail at keeping track of my books: goodreads.com/rafblutaxt#booktube #booktuber #sumerian #cyberpunk #science-fiction #irony #cynicism #politics #postmodern

Who Owns Us And Our Future? - Discussing Hannu Rajaniemis Darkome Raf Blutaxt 2024-09-15 | Hannu Rajaniemi's new novel Darkome is one of the timeliest pieces of science-fiction for our current moment. Biotech, artificial intelligence and how they may change our world while other things will remain more or less the same are the issues that will play important roles in the coming decade and Darkome tackles them in the form of an engaging thriller, allowing us to think about them in ways that go beyond the headlines of news media and non-fiction.

Life After Death Means Work After Death - Discussing Ian McDonalds Necroville Raf Blutaxt 2024-09-14 | In his fifth novel Necroville - Terminal Café in the US - Ian McDonald returns to some of the topics he tackled in Out On Blue Six but approaches them from a different direction and in the very different context of 1994's world.

Fighting The Spectacle With Cyber Racoons - Discussing Ian McDonalds Out On Blue Six Raf Blutaxt 2024-09-12 | In his second novel Out On Blue Six Ian McDonald tackled a hell of a lot of topics all at once, creating an insane rollercoaster of a novel that blows past all the conventions and restrictions of science-fiction and cyberpunk - both real and imaginary. Considered by some to be just too much and trying too hard, I argue that it nevertheless is an important text both to understand the career of McDonalds and get a glimpse into a very specific point in time where history did not end but stuttered for a moment and where genre fiction switched gears yet again.

Magical Realism On Mars - Discussing Ian McDonalds Desolation Road Raf Blutaxt 2024-09-08 | In 1988 Ian McDonald published his debut novel Desolation Road, mixing elements of magical realism, science-fiction and postmodern fiction in a unique way. Sadly this book has not received wide-spread attention and praise from readers and languishes in obscurity today.
