this book was written for me and it's probably going to be my favorite book of the year but in a way where i'm pissed about it because i should have written this. my GOD the way this book interacts with history and the concept of myth-making is so craziness-inducing. this goes so far beyond "cleopatra in space" but it is also doing so much justice to the concept of cleopatra in space. flawless writing, incredible characters, bisexual love triangles, cicero is there, what more can you ask for and i can't even like. get into how great this is because i'm no-joke going to write an academic thesis on it
