halfcactus's review against another edition
5.0
WHAT THIS BOOK HAS: loyalty, animal AI, a literally calculating protagonist who has an unironic love for dramas, animal AI, crises of pastry, 2 people sharing a body
This was great! The visual detail and worldbuilding are amazing; I kept getting distracted imagining how the signifiers change forms. At some point I had to stop reading just to take in the description of a sinister candle (whose existence gave us a deeper sense of the history and context of the current regime).
The editing is very *chef's kiss*. The entire novel is a product of conscious, careful choice, no scene wasted.
