I guess Pratchett means Brutha to be on the spectrum.

Dalysisla chapter would make a great horror episode if the trilogy is ever turned into a TV show

Foreshadowing? Everyone says they will invite Lucy to sing in future games and she mentions it being awful if humans were modified like the Jabber Jays so that someone can control what they say... 10% left, guess we'll find out if I'm right or not soon.

So far enjoying it. Doesn't fall into too many prequel traps other than district 12 once again being the important one

This morning I was wondering if the book had been over-hyped. After today the answer is "no, no it is not." The series is going to provide stiff competition for the series category in the Hugos

The somewhat time-hopping nature of the narrative works really well with a story of time-hopping gods. Don't know if Jo Walton did that on purpose, but it works very well as a metanarrative.

Love where this story is going! Wish I could just sit at home and read it. (Although if I were at home, I'd have other tasks pulling at me)

I love that the chapters both continue the story and fill in some of the background of the first two; particularly with Crocus' chapters.

Hugo 2021 Voter's packet is finally out. Once I finish the two books I'm actively reading, it's time to start reading Hugo noms to make an informed decision

A Word Shaped Like Bones: This could almost have been in Nightmare magazine; a variant on the insanity of long-term space travel. A great subversion of my expectations.

Cuts Both Ways: A meditation on what it’s like to work intel and get scarred by the situation. The PTSD also seems an apt metaphor to what some on the autism spectrum describe as their lived reality. Plus a trans metaphor (more in my final review)

Each to Each: What makes this tale of a SF future female navy extra scary is that we’ve done stuff like this before. In this tale there are genetic modifications done to make the women better submariners (don’t want to give the plot away), but they are left with even larger breasts because that will increase the appeal for the program. At once terrifying and sweet, a great story by Ms. McGuire.
