I read the Bible and understood most of the references. I think Nod was one of the best references — in the Bible it was where Cain was banished, a place apart from Eden, where there were kind of just people there separate from Adam and Eve’s lineage.

There has to be a fantastically rich read someone could do with this book if they had also read the bible, and could expand upon the various allusions and references made all over the whole thing.

I got suspicious about 50 pages in when there were tons of references to god and heaven etc and one of the characters was named Paul, and sure enough, the narrative acknowledged that the octupus characters were all given biblical names on purpose. The planets were given biblical names on purpose.

At least one part (named collection of chapters) had a bible reference, being called Pillar of Salt, and one of the characters in that chapter was named Lot, and to my understanding those things are connected. There was also a Noah and an Ahab, and a couple other relevant names that I don’t know the stories for.

I kinda wish I had known the bible stories as I was reading, as I expect they would have given me extra context/foreshadowing. I looked up Lot when I saw the name, and the whole “when God tells you not to do something he means it” definitely came through in that chapter of the book.

I’m gonna try to see if someone has done this already (surely someone has. It’s right there) but I’m also going to bed soonish and I’m worried I’ll forget, so I’m making this post to remind myself of it

As a general rule of fantasy and sci-fi naming, the closer to the back half of the alphabet the average letter in their name is, the eviller they are. A name that doesn't contain any consonants north of R is poison frog colouration. If it uses Y as a vowel in a non-terminal position you're basically fucked.
