The Tusks of Extinction by Ray Nayler

4.5

It is truly incredible how many complex themes can be explored in around 80 pages here, and effectively. Because it is so short most characters are very superficial but you can still feel the humanity and grief of our main character clearly. A thought provoking discussion about the ethics of de-extinction and human greed. I wish a bit more time had been spent with the mammoths and Damira, I found the poachers' storyline much less interesting and when there is so little time spent in this world, it's a little sad getting even less time with the mammoths and elephants.
