An Intellection on the Post Mechanics of Death
Gordon McWhorter, author
It is a great pleasure to introduce to you, my readers, a new rabbit hole to jump through, and inside there are a thousand more. Join me as I tell the tale of a man desperate to find out what's waiting for us after death, finding it, and then rejecting its reality to create anew a whole world. Death is a Sci Fi Novel!

Assessment:
When an unnamed narrator tries to find out what is waiting for him after his death, he discovers Giana Tolz, a world in which the inhabitants mate only when they find their genetic match and a renegade group believes in preserving its population by immortality instead of procreation. An excess of characters results in their poor development, though a few are distinct and fleshed out. Although the story has a slow start, it picks up the pace once the narrator observes Giana Tolz, focusing on Tulia and Merlaen, a matched couple.
