@134318c2 it's SCP universe, but it's not deeply buried and i feel like probably doesn't need any particular familiarity with the lore to enjoy. knowing "SCP" is a thing in this context i think is probably more than enough

it's very good. well written, which is no guarantee with homebrew sf, and that goes in service of a narrative that hits a lot of high points for me personally and in general is well constructed on both a science-fiction-nal and a human level

i'd definitely recommend it. not that that's anything like a guarantee but if you like the first chapter i feel like odds are good of you liking the whole thing 

 @134318c2 100% in-universe. It’s…extremely good assessed as what it is, which is a series of connected short stories submitted to a collaborative fiction project? They’re absolutely a talented writer; I’d love to see what they could do in the hands of a professional editor. That sounds like a caveat and I guess it is, but I enjoyed reading it and have recommended it to multiple people. 

 @134318c2 I just finished it, and it's good. The writing at the micro level isn't incredible, but the overall idea is very interesting. It kept my attention all the way through.
