A delightful little book about the ties that bind sentients of whatever background. I really love this series.

The characters, alien. The emotions, real. The joy of reading, abundant. Finishing it, despairing.

The Wayfarers series is a master class in character development. I have thoroughly enjoyed all four books, and while ranking them feels a bit uncouth, because they all made me laugh, cry, and feel more than most books even attempt, I believe this might be my 3rd favorite.
