On a remote, icy planet, the soldier known as Breq is drawing closer to completing her quest.
Once, she was the Justice of Toren--a colossal starship with an artificial intelligence linking thousands of soldiers in the service of the Radch, the empire that conquered the galaxy.
Now, an act of treachery has ripped it all away, leaving her with one fragile human body, unanswered questions, and a burning desire for vengeance.
Amazing, with a capital A. It's been a while since a book grabbed me this quickly and this hard.
This one took a bit of warming up to, the perspective of the main character/narrator was a bit hard to follow at first, but once I saw what was going on it became easier. Definitely a page turner. I enjoyed the novel perspective, and found myself quite attached to the characters by the end. A friend lent my all 3 of the books in the series, and I can't wait to dig into the next one.
Really enjoyed this book. In some ways it's a classic space opera but there's enough twists on the formula that it feels super fresh. Fascinating explorations of identity, language, and class. The writing was fun and engaging, I ate this book up.
