I will be taking a star off because a character repeatedly misgendered a trans woman at the end of the story and because
All in all I really enjoyed this story, it was so fun and exciting to read.
I'm giving this 4 out of 5 stars!

- I've seen some reviews complain about the number of narrators, but I really enjoyed the many points of view. Given how much was going on, it felt like I was seeing many sides of the action.
- One big thing that dragged this down for me was the implication that the disabled character couldn't fully access her joy and artistic talent unless she was actively in pain. I understand how that concept integrated with the overall plot, but it felt icky at times.

Chosen by a friend for our little book club, The Prey of Gods was one thing after another. Gods, demigoddesses, robots, fame and politics, this book really covered it all. And it didn't ever feel bogged down with weight from its many main characters!
I'm a big fan of dialogue and this book delivered on that end - fight sequences were quick and there were never pages and pages of descriptions. The book flowed from one plot point to the next, full of delightful twists and turns.
