This is one of those books that is better the less you know going in. It didn’t go where I expected and yet I couldn’t wait to follow it to the end. The science of the science fiction is accessible, it doesn’t waste time on over-explaining the political systems of a future-Earth, and it’s as exciting and nerve-wracking as it is sweet and thoughtful. A practically perfect read.
