Rereading this and loving it just as much as the first time. It brings forth all the emotions in a world that at first seems different from our own but ends up with many parallels both inspiring and haunting. Well written and immersive.
The ending might be a little pat, but the journey to get there is so deftly traveled that I honestly don't know that it matters how the story ends.
