This book is Evangelion + The Locked Tomb + Wrath Goddess Sing. It contains such _beautiful_ descriptions of coming into technology so indescribable that it breaches the divine. Yang has such a way with words when describing destiny, the unknown, and the unknowable. The breaks in narration throughout were a little heavy-handed, and I wish there was _a little more_ to the ending. There's a tease at what could be a possibility for what is actually the case, but not enough that it makes me want to strongly introspect the rest of the book. I would recommend this in a HEARTBEAT for anyone who loves screwed up chosen one with absurd power who pilots a mech story line.
