Too Like the Lightning

The strangest mashup of history and futuristic sci-fi I've read. Chock full of philosophy, ethics, religion, gender, and politics with some supernatural forces thrown in like a potent catalyst. Fascination trumps plausibility, but the historical references insist that we consider what worlds our ideas might conceive.
