"The Starship and the Temple Cat" by Yoon Ha Lee.
Cats, starships, quests and the dead. The story of a temple cat set amidst space opera.

I read "The Starship and the Temple Cat," by Yoon Ha Lee. Poignant and sweet.

Rating and review only for Yoon Ha Lee's The Starship and the Temple Cat.
Okay, again I am biased since I have a cat (or is it the other way around?) and she was snuggling in my lap trying to eat my Kindle when I was reading this. But who does not like a nice, sweet story, starring a ghostly loyal cat and an abandoned starship? As always, I love the evocative names of places and starship Lee made up.

This review is for Yoon Ha Lee's The Starship and the Temple Cat. I'm a sucker for animal stories, a sucker for sentient ships (especially ones who sing; thank you, Andre Norton and then in turn Ann Leckie) , and I loved the glimpses the author gave of a rich imagined future culture among the stars. This one pinpricked my heart in very nice ways. I believe this may(?) be my first Yoon Ha Lee story, so I'll be seeking more out.
