Dude. But jokes aside (the pirate is easy to find), Xenology is… Complicated.
Tone-wise it’s very well-done. I just really dislike how it leans into the ‘everything is one big easy interconnected narrative’ idea (even though I understand that is the entire point of a book that is all about emulating conspiracy theory imagery).
I am happy the author flat-out said to not take the book as the definitive answer.
I also think it’s important to frame it in the time it was published. The tablet at the end loses a lot of the cosmic horror elements when Necron Pariahs were retconned out and the waking C’tan stopped being a major presence.
