Entspannte Unterhaltung

Dieser Teil führt Peppers Biographie und Loveys Schicksal in zwei Handlungssträngen zusammen. Die Sprache ist recht einfach und wenig geschliffen. Es ist streckenweise spannend. Der Fokus liegt klar auf "zwischenwesenlichen" (zwischenmenschlich pass ja nicht!) Beziehungen, eingebettet in ein SciFi-Setting.

made me cry more than once

I absolutely adored this book. I realise that part of this is that it was a perfect little escape while I was stuck at home with covid, but I do also think it's really wonderful.

It has some similar strengths to the first in the series, in that it's mostly about the relationships between a few outcast characters that become a chosen family and just happen to be in space. But if anything I think it's better written (I guess Chambers getting into her stride with book 2), and benefits from being a more focussed story of a smaller number of characters. And has some weightier things to say about embodiment, the tension between fitting in and freedom, and loyalty & reciprocity.

I am excited about the rest of the series.
