The overall message of this book has stuck with me after reading it and is a good metaphor for the eventual rise of power due to our desire for it. The moments in the book weren't especially mind-blowing or well-written, but how they come together is really interesting. I also listened to this on audio and was tuned out for some of it...

Jack Edwards said in a video that this book made him realize the power literature could have to express ideas and it reminded me I’d been meaning to reread it for months!
