Luke reads The PROX Transmissions
So the main hero is apparently some kind of genius scientist, but also an absolute trainwreck. Off to a good start.
Stephen must look so absolutely ridiculous walking around with, like, a window shaved in his hair with a number tattooed on his skin. Man should have shaved both side of his head to just look less like a madman, but I also understand that at this point, he doesn't give many fucks about what people think.
This makes me think whether Stephen is based on Dustin or if Dustin is, like, a separate entity in the lore.
The amount of profanity is rather... excessive for a book that presents itself as a sophisticated sci-fi novel.
Seriously tho. There's something so funny about the fact that Starset has exactly 0 curse words in their entire discography while this book has at least one F-bomb per page on average.
"Aston Wise was a drunken asshole." Well, I'm not sure if you're in a right position to judge, Mr. "has sex with students" Browning.
Aston Wise is like Elon Musk if he was as cool as he thinks he is (but man he's indeed an asshole)
TBH I never really understood that "pathetic sopping wet dog man" meme, but I think it could apply very well to Stephen
I like how both Aston and Steven are supposed to be some kind of geniuses yet they seem to share a single braincell
This book can be pretty campy sometimes. And I definitely do NOT mean it in a negative way.
Evil CEO, aka. the most realistic villain
Motherfucker pays his people 37K per year and then [shocked Pikachu face] when they betray him
Regretfully, I have to inform you that not even this book is immune to the "breasted boobily" trope.
So Dana's daughter is Sarah? For a second, I thought it might be Sarah the Sarah aka. the BMI influencer from the "Icarus" video, but that's not consistent with the timeline.
It's incredibly in-character for Aston Wise to think like "What would be the best way to introduce people to a message from the future about the collapse of civilization? LET'S CREATE A KICKASS ROCK BAND AND THEY'RE GONNA PLAY IN SPACESUITS"
One of the book's most bonkers qualities is that it regularly and fluently oscillates between "pulpy, campy thriller feat. suited thugs with guns" and "the deepest, most profound, most thought-provoking shit you've ever read with your two eyes"
It's so funny how Dustin describes himself as kinda politically neutral and yet. The villain is a CEO of a megacorporation. The shady villainous organization is called "Collective of Industrialists" and they're like 0,1% away from being those comical cartoon capitalists with top hats and twirling mustaches. The Message, the very thing Starset is about, can be basically boiled down to "unchecked capitalism can and will cause utter, irreversible collapse of the society". While there are phrases used like "healthy capitalism" (which I'm not sure can exist), the book overall is more left than beef on pizza.
"Jay Bezie, the owner of a major internet retailer" LMAOOOO
"Partick Walman" the author just fucking GAVE UP on being subtle
I'm feeling weird about the concept of the Everything Machine being able to print, like, fully functioning humans. What makes it so that it doesn't just print a lifeless body? Then there's this whole debate about soul / some "spark of life" that can't be replicated. I know the Order are all scientists so they don't give a damn about it, but what if they didn't colonize PROX, but only filled it with some lifeless flesh drones?
Okay so overall, the book ended in a very satisfactory way, but also left enough cliffhangers and loose ends to make you HYPED for the sequel. Also... it raises some questions about the lore revealed in the Divisions/Horizons era. How did Aston become "The Architect"? Does it mean he's evil now, or just a persona non grata for the Order? And what about the takeover of the Starset Society by the Order of Teslonia (which signalled the release of "Horizons")? Does it mean they are one entity now? And what role does Stephen Browning play in all of this? So many questions.
Overall 10/10, a must-read for every serious and self-respecting Starset fan.
