Wow !!!!! What a ride!!!
This exciting and chilling tale took me on a journey with Ara'lu Nergal as he faced a crisis of faith and quested for answers. I could really empathize with his position and could feel the emotions he was going through. The end ... well I don't want to spoil it but I literally jumped in my seat in shock.
The writing style has a great manga feel to it so for all those fans of anime it is a must read! The story conveys a clear visual image that was very tactile for me and I could really see the setting.
Plus the added bonus for fans of Chian'niu is this story gives a deeper look into the setting. It helped to answer some questions I had like: Where the title Ara'lu came from and who was the voice behind the song of the machine!
