Seven of Infinities by Aliette de Bodard

4.0

Seven of Infinities is a novella set in the Vietnamese-inspired science fictional universe of Xuya. This setting allows de Bodard to tackle different genres, and this time she writes a murder-mistery/novel, with good results.
I really liked Sunless Woods, the retired thief mindship that tries to impress the scholar Vân and their interaction with the other members of the former group.
It's not my favorite novella in this setting, but as usual, it's well written and with compelling characters.
