outcolder's review against another edition

There is a lot going on here: questions about what it means to be human; thinking about assimilation and integration as betrayal; some weird thoughts about what it might be like to be a pet, and more. Deep. Butler was so damn smart.

Completely fascinating, but I was left wanting more exploration into the themes of what it means to be human, what it means to make a real choice, that felt somewhat glossed-over in this book. (I did find more of what I was looking for in the second book in this series -- so maybe I just needed to be patient.)
