A History of the Future

The world-building paints a grim but compelling picture, but I wondered if the depiction felt authentic or overly dystopian. What stood out most in how the environment and society are portrayed?

The different voices gave a layered view of the collapse, but I’m curious whether this structure was planned from the start or developed during writing. How did it influence the story’s impact?

There are moments of real technical depth, but at times it felt like the science slowed the pacing. I wonder if the focus on realism was a conscious choice or a challenge in storytelling.
