A review by kabaum
The Cage of Zeus by Sayuri Ueda
2.0
Where do I even begin with this book? I wanted so badly to like it. I was excited about it for multiple reasons: the author is a Japanese woman, the story is feminist, the story features a third gender, the story takes place on a space station above Jupiter! So many exciting things.
But I was disappointed. I enjoyed the story itself, but it got a little preachy at times. The moral debates about the ethics of creating this third gender and what it meant for the rest of humanity were interesting, but they got very repetitive. I read the same arguments and discussions played out over and over.
Moral of the story: it was good, but not great. I wanted to love this.
