A review by owlmoose
Provenance by Ann Leckie

5.0

I went into this book knowing very little about it -- only that it was set in the same universe as the Ancillary Justice trilogy, but not among the Radchaai, and that it stood alone. So I was not prepared for a fun story of political intrigue, but I was completely delighted to get one. I enjoyed a lot of things about this book -- the cast of delightful characters, especially the protagonist, Ingray, and Captain Usisine; learning about other human societies and getting a look at the Radch from an outside perspective; the seamless use of non-binary pronounces (e/em/eir); and the humor. Leckie is rapidly becoming one of my favorite writers, and I can't wait to see what she does next.
