I liked this. As her first released book, I can see the beginnings of her more complex topics. There is definitely some hesitancy to go into the more blatant questioning like we see in Left Hand of Darkness, or The Dispossessed, but I don’t necessarily see that as a bad thing. Everyone starts somewhere and this is a beautiful start. This may have convinced me to finally re-read The Lord of the Rings.
