Ancienne enfant esclave libérée par miracle, grandie seule sur une planète ravagée, elle aussi a dû lutter pour accéder pleinement à l’humanité et se construire une vie, sinon ordinaire, du moins normale.

hat A Closed and Common Orbit von Becky Chambers besprochen (Wayfarers, #2)

I Cried

The dual stories, told in short, impactful chapters is such a powerful mechanism, and Becky Chambers wields it perfectly.

Both stories are riveting for their own, very different reasons. But both have to do with social justice, and personhood denied.

I found myself getting to the end of one chapter and being oh but I want to stay with this character! only to get embroiled in the other character's chapter immediately.

It's like an anti-cliffhanger. Rather than leaving you hanging, it pulls you in to the next segment, and then pulls you right back into the following.

If you liked The Long Way to a Small, Angry Planet - the previous entry by Becky Chambers, then I can super-recommend this.

Review of 'A Closed and Common Orbit' on 'Goodreads'

A wonderful sequel

This book went an entirely different direction from the first in the series, yet it was just as enjoyable. My favorite part of the book was the structure in which the two stories were told in parallel, coming together into a great finish. Can't wait for the third one!
