Becky Chambers did it again.
This time it takes a wile for the story to really get going, mainly because there are many apparently unrelated characters/storylines. But once you get to know them all, you can't put the book down.
The universe of the Wayfarer saga feels more real and alive with each new novel. And there's a thing that really had me thinking: in this universe, earth and humans count almost nothing from a political/economical point of view. We are the poor african country of the galactic community, and we are well aware of it. But you know what? Humanity in this universe is far better than humanity in 2018. There's a strong sense of community and mutual support that bounds every human being in the galaxy, maybe born from need and awareness of our small place in the universe. I just love this.
