One aspect of this novel I didn't care much for: there's romance, but it's not the fun kind. And there's a baby. It's just all so domestic. Tied-down characters are boring. Hannah herself isn't even particularly likeable any more; she's more of an object to which things happen than an active participant this time around, and when she does act, she makes stupid mistakes, and things just keep getting worse.
Mixed feelings in the end. It has an interesting start and middle, but the last act is filled with such hopelessness. I haven't been this depressed by a SF sequel since [b:Ancient Light|808669|Ancient Light|Mary Gentle|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1239501333s/808669.jpg|794610].… (mehr)
