Theogasm is a dark near-future apocalyptic horror story, unfolding at the intersection of spiritual and physical ecstacy. The protagonist uncovers strange developments worldwide as he investigates irruptions of devotional rapture, bizarre orgiastic riots, and sinister correlations online. Paying a terrible personal price as those he loves are affected, he delves deeper into the mystery, finally uncovering an enigmatic contagion that threatens the very nature of humanity. Praise for Theogasm Commission Patrick Süskind and Ian Watson to collaborate on a new Book of Revelation, and they might produce a vision as lucidly unhinged as THEOGASM. Paul StJohn Mackintosh has imagined a spectacularly strange epidemic, that progresses with scientific rigor and inexorable logic toward a singularly weird apocalypse. - Mike Allen, author of Unseaming and Slow Burn Every word in this piece carries tremendous import. The information density of the prose approaches stellar gravity.
It reads somewhere between Walter M. MIller, Jr, Richard Cowper, and a police procedural, and everything is perfectly balanced, leading to an explosive conclusion. Best book of 2024 in this genre. - Duane Pesce
