It was always intended to become slightly over the top. As you said, it works well with what music is. It is also in a way the point of the story, which starts in a drab joyless world and ending (hopefully) in a place that is filled with a sense of wonder.
The structure so far is a bit strange, mostly because it follows a narrative arc which does not follow the paths I'm used to.

The Vera Lynn disaster is the central piece of the first book of the series. The one you are reading now is the third.
Balestra played a minor but important role in that book. In this case what happened there is not all that important to the story now.
Minor first story spoilers ahead:
The Vera Lynn was a space ship that was supposed to be an orbital residence to the super rich. It crashed and burned. It was a 4Life ship.
If you like MetalDog's new story you should get back and read the other two too. Same universe, very different stories. You'll be in for a treat and I'm sure that MD'd appreciate the feedback.
