This book is pretty well in line with the same standards as the 1st book. Violence is the least graphic, sex is somewhat graphic at times but not overall, and profanity is liberally peppered within the dialogue.(less)

Did anyone translate what the boxer said to Kaaro in the 'dream' sequence? It seems to be in Latvian...

Even an anthropologist, the daily reader notes the gradual increase in objectivity for decades. The challenge and countermeasure of samples and methods is the norm. Margaret Meads's work in Samoa (formerly Western Samoa) was once considered a seed. I have lived here and read other ethnographies, I have best said that time is time. Napoleon Chagnon believes that Yanomamö is a war name that is equally open to challenge. Eriksen said that the type of description of the social / cultural system should depend on its own interests'. I think it is suggesting that man's view of itself is always subjective, because that's what happens when you examine yourself, objectivity is lost. I think that this is somehow one of the clues that humanity has to be open to working with the Homians. But why a Latvian boxer?(less)

I have read the first novel and although I have enjoyed it, I wasn't impressed (my main issue was the dullness of Kaaro as a character and how stereotypical the premise is compared with other sci-fi novels). Is it worth reading the second novel or shall I give it a miss?

Paul Pama Absolutely. Part #2 is better (I liked part #1 as well) on many aspects.

Can I read #2 as a standalone? Or is it better to read the first book, then this one? Thanks in advance!
