? <\/strong>Would<\/strong> you go to hell for a letter of recommendation?<\/strong> In RF Kuang\u2019s latest fantasy novel, Katabasis<\/a> \u2014 which, in mythology translates to one\u2019s descent to the underworld \u2014 that\u2019s exactly what the author puts her protagonist, Alice Law, through. No stranger to stellar works of literature, the Babel<\/a> and Yellowface<\/a> author\u2019s latest release is a bingeable 550-pager that seamlessly combines academia, fantasy, and tales of the underworld as told through humanity\u2019s myriad mythologies.<\/p>\n

When one accidentally kills their professor, it\u2019s only logical to attempt to retrieve his <\/strong>soul from Hades\u2019 grip.<\/strong> Alice Law is one of the field of Magick\u2019s brightest minds. Her sole dream? Teach alongside her professor, Jacob Grimes, at Cambridge, whose letter of recommendation we\u2019re told is the key to open every academic and career door there is. Unfortunately, [redacted] hits the fan when she forgets to death-proof his pentagram, and guts start flying, leaving Grimes\u2026 eviscerated. <\/p>\n

Alice is devastated, seemingly not by the loss of her mentor but rather the letter of <\/strong>recommendation she would now kiss goodbye.<\/strong> She begins conducting extensive research on the underworld, consuming a plethora of literature from myriad cultures to ready herself for her journey 6+ feet under. As she begins her travels, she runs into her lover-turned-academic rival Peter Murdoch, who\u2019s also on a quest to retrieve Grimes\u2019 soul as well. <\/p>\n

Dante\u2019s Inferno meets Donna Tartt\u2019s The Secret History\u2026 meets The Good Place.<\/strong> As the unlikely duo begins their descent, they\u2019re met with the reality of the situation: should they fail, there\u2019s no going back. The novel references most depictions of hell from throughout the ages, primarily Dante\u2019s Inferno. In Katabasis, Kuang presents an amalgamation of the world\u2019s literature on the afterlife in one comprehensive account. From the different philosophical interpretations of hell to the most notorious of otherworldly entities, it\u2019s all there. <\/p>\n

\u201cHell is a campus.\u201d<\/strong> Alice and Peter begin passing through the underworld\u2019s different layers, at one point finding themselves in a mirror Cambridge, leading them to the realization that oftentimes hell isn\u2019t what you expect it to be. As they march on, the reader is given snippets of non-fictional academic tidbits relating to the underworld in the form of interjectionary chapters throughout the novel\u2019s length.<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t let the premise fool you. <\/strong>While the novel may be a fantasy \u2014 and the premise perhaps ludicrous \u2014 it offers a compelling view of how different cultures throughout history have interpreted the afterlife. In that sense, it\u2019s a novel that\u2019s philosophically and culturally educational. Its characters are fleshed out, complex, and surprisingly relatable in their motives and struggles. Katabasis offers an interesting and timely critique of the state of modern-day academia through a fantastical lens. The writing is engaging and rids itself of pretentious prose, and despite being around 550 pages, the novel is one that will fly by. <\/p>\n

WHERE TO GET IT- <\/strong>You can get your hands on the Deluxe Limited Edition hardcover at The Bookspot<\/a>. You can also find the e-book on Amazon<\/a>, and listen to the audiobook on Storytel<\/a>.
