It was such a choice Muir made here; explaining nothing, writing in second person, flipping between timelines, suspending reality - and it paid off. Do I I illumination had come a bit earlier? Sure; 75% of 500 pages seems like a whole lot of time to spend confused. Are all my questions sufficiently answered? Hell no; I have more questions now than when I started. But I could not put this book down.
It lacked some of the wit and fun of Gideon, but that honestly worked in its favour for me; some of the references and jokes in Gideon rankled at me because they lacked context. How, for example, in a galaxy far far away&c, does a Mean Girls joke land without context? I should have known to have faith, but I simply could not predict that
Once in a while, if you're lucky, you come across a book or a series that is just so incredibly <i>your shit</i> that it feels like a blessing. This expansive, adventurous, mind-forking, genre-bending, meme-dropping gothic sci-fi series featuring a buff swordswoman and her goth gf, with two (2) confirmed threesomes with God himself, could not be more me if it tried.
