Light

M.John Harrisons ‘Light’ is mindwarp science fiction novel that weaves three separate stories and timelines through the cloth of chaos theory, quantum events, fantastical new ‘tailored’ genomes of human evolution, and incomprehensible alien races that only exist through the power of math. When new concepts are introduced, Harrison writes about them as if they were as everyday ordinary as your toothbrush, forcing you to learn to understand the world through context, rather than wrote description and definition of terms. In this way the world becomes your own, somewhere your mind exists, even though your body does not. If you love science, and fiction you *need* to read this book. Twice. Because theres no way to appreciate it all the first time through. Then come back here and tell me how much you love it. Because you will.
