I liked a lot of things about this book, but I think it could have been clearer in some of the explanations as it was going along. I don’t mean in terms of plot reveals—obviously we aren’t supposed to know some things until later—but in terms of clarity of language. Still, the way everything comes together is satisfying and interesting. The world building is also good. Solid sci-fi.
