Review of 'The PROX Transmissions' on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

This book is a must-read for any Starset fan. I'd say the book itself could be even considered a mediocre sci-fi story (if you're considering reading this book not knowing Starset's music, I would not recommend you to do it), but the thing is that 'The Prox Transmissions' is more like a background, one of the many media Starset uses to spread a message. So it is a tool to understanding the Starset lore: the meaning of the songs, of the music videos, of their 'demonstrations'... And, at this purpose, the book is just amazing, for it allows to assemble many pieces and connect deeper with Starset's content. In this sense, Starset is great at engaging their fans and immersing them in something that is beyond their music; Starset is more than a band, is kind of an 'experience'.
