I loved this character-driven story. It was fun to meet a diverse cast, but I also wished we got more time with each character. The biggest complaint I had was that the first third of the story was fairly slow, but it was engaging enough to keep going until it sped up. The ideas about space species and their interactions was really interesting and I liked the direction the author took with it.
