Ninefox Gambit by Yoon Ha Lee

5.0

Terrific world-building and a really fun concept (until you start to think too hard about the horrific world that actually exists under the hexarch). Like super-evil Harry Potter candidate sorting. The story plays out in a way that is both predictable (as main POV character is directing most things) and very unpredictable. This is also made more interesting with the bicameral nature of the main character and the fact that half is very unpredictable, so you have to consider them an unreliable narrator. And who doesn't love them some droids (I mean servitors).
