"This epic, bio-punk space adventure will blow your mind as it grips you by the eyeballs. Books like this are the reason I read science fiction: to discover whole other worlds, ways of being, and to leave this world for the moments I’m in their pages. Don’t miss this one!"—Tobias S. Buckell, co-author of The Tangled Lands“Triangulumdescribes humanity’s revolt against a cadre of alien immortals,bio-mechanical beings with a technology indistinguishable frommagic.  It is a story of the far future but also the distantpast—needing to be worshiped as gods, the aliens have adoptedhumanity’s oldest cosmologies—the Sanskrit-language Vedas—sothat they can appear to us as devas, asuras, maruts.  Theseamless amalgams of past/future, animal/machine, andmagic/technology give Subodhana Wijeyeratne’s novel ahallucinogenic vividness and clarity, and a sense of one thingconstantly becoming something else, the transformations of thecharacters against a background as immutable as stars.”—PaulPark, author of Soldiers of Paradise and Sugar Rain"Triangulum is addictive. Vast in scope but intimate in its characterizations, I could not stop reading. Outstanding prose, storytelling that doesn't flinch, and a truly original universe. Space opera at its best."—Karin Lowachee, award winning author of the Warchild Mosaic“Wijeyeratne has created a deep andengrossing world … The author uses his expertise as a historian toconstruct the Nine Worlds, their titanic overlords and the dozens ofhuman variants living under their alien thumbs, layering each with apast that underpins its present and drives every facet of this galaxyspanning epic.”—Aurealis Magazine
