The world-building and character development remain strong and bring along a better plot line. In hindsight this one is getting better in my memory. Definitely one of those novellas that kept me turning pages, though this sequel felt less sci-fi space odyssey and more sci-fi magical realism. I like both though so the switch didn't bother me. An interesting exploration of PTSD from a non-traditional format. Again with the intriguing use of math.
