That’s why I was thinking about theology, about examples of Hell as a state of mind. I even read C. S. Lewis’s The Great Divorce in the hopes that it would better inform this review… only to find that I had kind of the wrong impression about the reality and meaning of Hell in The Great Divorce, and by that time it was too late to read any Sartre or binge The Good Place.

The novel is a good split between the two genres, though with a more overt presence and vibe of science fiction. I would predict it would be more readily enjoyed by general fans of science fiction that aren’t too into horror compared to the converse.
The plot of Civil War actually doesn’t matter at all. It’s just a backdrop of events to explore the worst of human selfishness.
