Exordia by Seth Dickinson
4.0

I really liked this book for most of it. There was a thing with souls about 75% of the way through that lost me for a bit, but it brought it back around.

However, this has that Neal Stephenson problem that you'll understand if you've read more than one Neal Stephenson book, in that it feels like the author probably should just started another book. The ending is...well, it certainly exists. I don't consider this a real problem (i.e. Neal Stephenson is still one of my favourite authors even though most of his books end by dribbling like the last bit of ketchup in a glass bottle).

I really enjoyed it even if it went on a little bit too long.
