- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This level of plausible speculative science fiction combined with a visceral human experience of the social and environmental challenges of a new human settlement kept my mind stimulated and has left me curious for more.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5I found this second in the series very frustrating. Three quarters of the book are dedicated to world building in painful detail. It's examined from nearly all of the sciences perspectives. I found my mind wandering during long chapters on lichens or massively detailed descriptions of vistas which were already described in the previous book or even this one. I was dying for something to further the plot. My other beef is that I was convinced by earlier writing that I hated Maya. Then I find she's a narrator for a large portion of the book. Unfortunately to know what's happening in the third book I had to slog through this one. By the time we got to the awesome events of the attempt at revolution, I was mentally exhausted by descriptions of glaciers and fell fields.
