This book starts slow but the world building is immaculate and the plot is phenomenal. I really enjoyed learning about the planet of Faloiv and its’ inhabitants, including the unique animal-life. This future society’s hunger for more teaches us valuable lessons about what it means to occupy a planet and how to do so in a more sustainable and equitable manner.
