NARAKA by Alessandro Manzetti Reviewed by Author Paul Dale Anderson

The novel NARAKA - THE ULTIMATE HUMAN BREEDING by Alessandro Manzetti reviewed by author Paul Dale Anderson:

"Naraka reads like a demented cross between James Joyce and Piers Anthony novels, with a touch of Richard Thomas thrown in for good measure. Heaven above, hell below. Heaven’s a lie. Hell is real. In the Hindu and Buddhist mythology, Naraka is one of the ancient Sanskrit names for hell. There are many hells. The cunt is also a hell, 'the hell from which monsters come out.'
After the super-rich military-industrialists turned earth into a hell where nothing grows, they built a new underground detention center on the moon where they incarcerate violent criminals and socially-undesirables and force them to procreate before slicing and dicing them into food or fuel. The author warns readers from the beginning that there are multiple timelines and multiple narrators in Naraka. Definitely not for the fainthearted, this novel is hardcore horror. Highly-recommended for its daring and brilliant use of language and myth. 5/5"
