Ancillary Mercy

Well, that is definitely a book that's been released, and I would love to know your thoughts!

My thought is that I don't yet have it. *sobs*

I'm not done it yet, but so far my thoughts include "OMG Presger Translators are loopy as all HELL," while at the same time I can more or less follow Zeiat's logic and it makes me EXTREMELY curious about the Presger. The most alien aliens I've run into in a while.

I've finished it, and my thoughts are "OMG SO GOOD", "aw, man, Ann Leckie has said that her next in-universe book will be far removed in time and space, but I wanted to see more of these characters", a sense of tearful joy, and vindication on the matter of Tisarwat being my favorite.

(Also, hi community. I joined during the pre-Mercy lull and have been sort of quiet.)

MY SHIP SHIPPING IS CANON. \o/ I'M SO HAPPY. It was the ending that I didn't expect but absolutely wanted without knowing I wanted it, too.
