Diese Stadt . . . ein Sumpf von Schweiß und Sünde. Ein fauliger Ort, nass und klebrig und voller Fliegen, deren Sirren jedem den Verstand raubt. Immer schon rottet sie vor sich hin, Jahrzehnte lang unbeachtet, bis dann und wann ein Anfall von Wut und Wahnsinn sie aufpeitscht. Bis sie das Land mit Gewalt überzieht. Ihr letzter Irrsinn riss sie in Stücke. Gespalten fiel . . .

I’ll keep asking who, why, what, where, when and how until I get some answers. What else can I do? I am forgetting the past, living in the present and finding my way . . .
These are the tales of one particular set of anthropomorphic personifications of mathematical relations. Where the graphs double as the character hairstyles.

There are series’ where the parabola gets kidnapped away from the polynomials (because isn’t Para a conic?), where . . .

Erin does a marvelous job of hooking and bringing [more . . .]
May 23, 2015: Tales of MU was the second serial I read (after reading Worm), so it holds a special place in my heart. The beginning really pulled me in and I immediately started devouring it.
I adore the ideas and the characters behind the story and I connected on certain levels with Mack. Amaranth worried me at first; I was afraid she would just be a Mary Sue, but her character flaws quickly became evident. The character development is extremely well done, which [more . . .]
