Fantastic read Well thought through and quite amazing in ideas. I loved reading it and want to read more. Most chapter revolve around one person/grou/timeframe and seeing society and things change makes it a case of wow

85/100 - a smidge of editing and excitement away from being a flawless sprawling sci-fi classic

He thought about it for a moment. 'They're pretty. Hold on, let me finish...pretty, but dangerous. Powerful. And...strange. They're mysterious to me. They're like lighthouses. Each one is different, and each is sometimes the only part of a system we can see.'"

Really didn’t expect this book to be as good as it was. But it was stunning.

It was one of my favorite books this year! A great read!
