/ Fantasy / ROTATIONAL EMOTION
Synopsis
All the chapters are weird, fantasy short stories which are interconnected by the characters living in the fictional city of Zuschter.
Mr. XY, the anonymous philosopher that can hack into any website, says that our future has already been written and we are just mere puppets who just think that we are taking some decision. As it appears, the city worships Apeisynthecoid, a seemingly jelly like creature full of eyeballs all around it's body and has infinite limbs. Apeisynthecoid is an invisible, metaphorical organism whose limbs(called fate) pass through everyone in the city and are used to make the human beings move around like puppets. Things begin to take a bizarre turn when people begin to get constant headaches as they feel the limbs of Apeisynthecoid going through their head. Thus, start a myriad of stories starting with two science journal writers, going around the fictional city of Zuschter, to find Apeisynthecoid and in the the process we meet other characters whose stories will be told in later chapters.

It's quite gripping from the start. One of the major pros of the web novel is that it never dwells on descriptions like others do. It's precise and keeps the pace, atleast till now. Although the location is never mentioned, I am assuming it might be somewhere in the states. The humour is on point. Although the characters are never fully described, you quite get a good sense of how they are and what they are. The story quite feels like a cheerful Murakami style and I think it's quite evident in this work that the author is inspired by the great Japanese author. There is a mysterious aura in the novel, which almost feels like a thriller story but quite keeps with the slice of life genre as well. It has really intrigued me to know what happens next. Can't wait to read more.
