joachim reviewed A Desolation Called Peace by Arkady Martine
Arkady Martine has outdone herself.
5 stars
Better than the first installment of the series. The characters are more rounded, the story around the first contact with an alien species can be read on many levels and is much more adapted to a SF setting than the first installment. I hope there'll be another book telling what happens with Mahit and Three Seagrass!
