I adore this series. I love the galaxy Chambers created. This book has a lot less plot than the others, I feel. It's a lot about who the characters are and their species and their histories and why things happen. As always, wild moral dilemmas are introduced.

I think I'd enjoy reading an encyclopedia about this universe, tbh, that's how fascinating the worldbuilding is to me. I'd love an artbook or something.

Sad to part with the series. I guess I'll just have to reread it from time to time.
