This is the kind of book I'll press into people's hands with a slightly unhinged look in my eyes. One of the best I've read this year without a doubt.

Good but not great. The first half is stronger than the second, and I was more gripped by the ideas than the execution. Worth reading once.

This book broke me and then put me back together better. I don't say that lightly. It's the kind of thing you read once and carry with you forever.

Enjoyable if you're already a fan of the genre. Doesn't do much to break new ground, but the existing ground it covers is covered well.

Knocked me sideways. I wasn't expecting to be this affected by a fantasy novel. The emotional intelligence here is remarkable.

One of those rare books where you're sad when it's over, not because the ending is sad, but because you don't want to leave the world it built.
