First off: yay, neopronouns! I really love how clearly unafraid Ann Leckie is in exploring gender in various forms in every one of her books (that I have read so far). 

It was also interesting to see this universe outside of the scope of the Radch, and I really hope she will continue to explore it.

The story itself was pretty interesting and well woven together, carried by three very different but similarly likable protagonists (likable for different reasons, and each with their flaws nonetheless). I enjoyed each part of the story, including the finale.
