Up the Walls of the World by James Tiptree Jr.

5.0

Yaaaaaas, QUEEN! Tiptree has been on my to-read list forever, but it's hard to find electronic copies of her work. But she lived up to my keen anticipation and surpassed my expectations. I mean, wow. Gender role-subverting aliens, check. Gas giant home planet, yup. Badass Black programmer gal, got 'er. Early computer and satellite geekery, yes ma'am. Telepathy, of course. Morality and time bending space leviathan speaking in all caps, sign me UP! She even managed not to get man-hatey. Again I say: WOW! My one complaint is that the three perspectives got a little repetitive towards the end, but I can't even knock a star off for that, the rest was so amazing.
