Fascinating. (  ) quavmo | Jun 26, 2022 |  Breq decided twenty years ago on a impossible goal. She's been traveling across space and risking her life toward that accomplishment every since. Will she succeed? What made her so hellbent on this target? Ancillary Justice is best of breed political sci-fi. It's a slowly revealed high stakes plot, contains excellent worldbuilding rife with implicit reflections on gender and identity, and boasts highly novel characters -- so novel, in fact, the idea of "embodied spaceship AI" has been on the resurgence since this novel's publication in 2013. These are classic '70s sci-fi themes with modernist trappings -- genderless language rendered in English with female pronouns, one consciousness having multiple physical bodies, self-aware spaceships, living multiple millennia. The story addresses core human themes: What does it mean to be divided in oneself, and how does that affect others? How do we construct identity? What is the good life, and what is appropriate to sacrifice to achieve it? Is there really a moral distinction in legislating behavior versus legislating thought? This book is definitely an example of the "humanities questions through spec fic" genre that so often speaks to me; I will pick up more by Ann Leckie. (  )1  pammab | Jun 5, 2022 | Really good book, but definitely one that you have to warm up to though. Full of interesting twists and turns and definitely unique in its storytelling style. Am definitely going to read through the rest of the series with these twists! (  ) Onomatapedalo | May 7, 2022 | Science fiction epic with an amazing narrator. I love everything about what she does with this character -- from the consistent gender ambiguities and confusions, to the multiple viewpoints, to the deep heart of the ship. Puzzles within puzzles and powers I haven't seen explored before. Reminds me a bit of the Left Hand of Darkness, and then again, like nothing I've seen before. ( ) jennybeast | Apr 14, 2022 | Oh fuck yes. This book is bonkers in all the best ways: gender-interesting space opera. So smart! (  ) leahsusan | Mar 26, 2022 | È contenuto in
