The core tunnel scene, from launch to the Earth's core, is so dramatic. It would be incredible to see that in cinema. The plunge into darkness. The rings of light. The blazing, silvery core of molten rock and earth and magic at the center of the Earth. The "voice" of Father Earth, so loud and so deep it shakes our bones.
The IMMENSITY of the reveal at the Earth's core is breathtaking. Father Earth is real. He was harmed by colonial shitheads who had no idea they were even trespassing against a living being. He's been eating the souls of every human who has died since the Shattering, imprisoning them in the unimaginable hell of His [justified] wrath. Most don't ever know what waits for them after death.
Deer gods 😳
This book is fucking good.
