Artemis Unveiled

by Jason Reza Jorjani

In the year 2112, Admiral Hyrcanius recounts the vicissitudes of a tumultuous history that culminated in the victory of Prometheism over Traditionalism. It includes a Third World War, a Second American Civil War, a Coronal Mass Ejection, a pole shift, and other catastrophes that result in mass depopulation, de-industrialization, and the rise of a Traditionalist World Order led by China, Russia, and Islam under the banner of the United Nations. The destruction of the Anglo-American Establishment leads to several revelations regarding crimes committed by the cabal in charge of the Deep State. Meanwhile, a Promethean society, with post-Islamic Iran as its bastion, breaks away from the Traditionalist World Order and wages a titanic rebellion against the Devas or Olympians, who disclose themselves in 2048 as the Guardians and Ancestors of humanity. We are presented with a detailed description of the science, technology, and society of this Promethean community, which eventually stretches from the Oort Cloud and Asteroid Belt to the ocean depths of Earth and the reclaimed megalithic cities of Cydonia on Mars. There has been a Spectral Revolution and a profound transformation of consciousness that could be considered “posthuman.” Part prediction, part revelation, and part aspiration, this is Jorjani’s vision of a Promethean Utopia being born from out of the flames of an apocalypse that unfolds throughout the twenty-first century. However, some will surely see it as a horrifically dystopian, cautionary tale concerning things to come.

[no.stache.nietzsche · Rating 4 out of 5]

A short novella with no real plot or characters, but simply detailing an overview of Jorjani's projected timeline for the approaching century, where he reincarnates as General Hyracanias to lead the Promethian of humans and hybrids centered in Iran to an alliance with Israel and the Ashuras, to ultimately defeat the Devas, and the United Nations co'opted by China and Russia, as well as the Levantine Islamic and American Christian traditionalists.

This work was definitely an improvement over his last book- Promethian Pirate, and there is definitely something to be said for having compacted so many immense propositions into a single work of this length. Not much to speak of as far as actual literary merit (unlike Jorjani's first two novels- which were highly laudable in that regard in our opinion), but hopefully Artemis Unveiled is merely a jumping off point for future fiction to come!

Fun, wild , educational and thought provoking

When you are that smart that your brain starts cannibalising itself. Looking forward to
More fiction from Jorjani. One of his wilder writings.

Strange alt history novella that challenges the form of fiction.

This is far from a fiction book, but it is fiction. It’s a unique manuscript that presents a fictional history book set in a far-flung future. It reads more like a text book than a story. Perhaps worth reading just to experience the unusual form itself. It also contains some interesting Philip K Dickian ideas and a fantastically futuristic Iran. I suspect some readers will find the book offensive.
