Exurbia: A Novel About Caterpillars by Alex Mckechnie (An Infinite Triptych Book 1)
Requirements: ePUB or MOBI reader, 1.4 Mb
Overview: "In the basements, in the attics and the hidden passages, the bare bones of god were being assembled, secured with bolts and sticking fluid."
Exurbia, a planet lightyears out in the galactic backwaters. Life is far from mundane. Underground cults beaver away in secret, trying to build that machine most abhorred by the empire – an artificial mind. A furious energy phenomenon is devouring cities whole without explanation. A sagely butterfly appears to a chosen few and talks of building god.
Four lives reluctantly intertwine: Jura – a conflicted ageing physicist, Fortmann – a fanatical cult leader, Moxiana – a young girl in hiding with a devastating ability, and the moralising imp – a creature engineered only for the sake of impartial decision making.
The empire has been conspicuously quiet for centuries, leaving the Exurbians to themselves. But a fast approaching craft, and its peculiar passenger – Miss Butterworth, is about to shatter that independence and shepherd Exurbia into its final days.
