Radchaai children's literature
Prompted by a discussion with wychwood, who was reading G.A. Henty (prolific author of 19th-century boy's adventure novels, all manliness and Empire and the obvious superiority of English people.)
I said that there's definitely a Radchaai equivalent of those novels. Has to be. Except no manliness, just justice, propriety, benefit, and civilisation.
And this led to wondering about other Radchaai children's literature, and which books would fit in well with a few changes.
Thoughts?
