How to describe R Scott Bakker

It is BDSM Tolkien with Sumerian Babylonian Nietzsche and those white alien men from Ridley Scott Prometheus and there is also Islam and the Crusades and Zoroastrian Confucius and Manichaeism juxtaposed with gnostic mysticism and Egyptian Hinduism but also laser guns and curved phallus did I mention curved phallus and death came swirling down also African voodoo shrunken heads the magic is like Greek geometry and parabolas but also rhetoric and Plato aporetic dialogue becomes technosorcerous antimagic artifacts that makes nihilism Jesus into salt because he is a trick like democracy but also Adorno? and aesthetics and syllogisms and chiasmus but sometimes it was just a dnd campaign he ran with his brother also every woman is a prostitute so the Maiden Mother Crone hierodulic theme just becomes Harlot, Harlot, Harlot and also there is the Pope and the caste system and slaves and also Vikings and Conan who is sometimes Mongolian and there are orcs or goblins but they are rapists and there is cannibalism and incest and Freudian oedipal children and also trauma psychology and neuroscience and programming and spaceships and people with faces that are hands but most of all eschatology and upside down fire which is entropy or decay or disorder maybe thermodynamics but damnation and DAMNATION and hellfire HELLFIRE BURN IN HELL which seems quite primitive given all the aforementioned influences but then it just ends -
