An enjoyable and very quick read! I preferred elder race's approach to the premise that what is sci fi to one is fantasy to another in the same story, and the worldbuilding and characters here just a little bit weaker to my mind, but you can't complain about a book this short! The problem with books in this genre is that I the reader already know what is to the characters quite an impactful reveal, so it doesn't hit as hard as it otherwise might.
