This was such a great sci-fi adventure. It follows our two main characters Fassen and Lu. Both are nonbinary kids who meet and maintain a secret relationship as they grow up being impacted in different ways by an oppressive empire. It’s a story of growth and finding a way forward when even those on the “good” side are morally unaligned.
I loved the use of technology and AI characters in this book as a way of exploring multiple ways of being. There is a lot of representation of trans and nonbinary characters, and the general cast is diverse in other ways as well.
