This is just not, as people are wont to say, my thing. As John Clute would say, there’s a clear Thinning (a diminishment of the world depicted) in this novel. It’s quite beyond my grasp the way that no matter how big this world was supposed to be, everyone kept running into one another everywhere. T...
Wow...wow. I absolutely loved this story. I couldn't put it down. I cried and I laughed, which I haven't done in a book in a long time. There's something extremely compelling to me about Sorna.

Well, 4 stars means I really, really liked it. I had some minor issues with the worldbuilding, but Anthony Ryan is a great storyteller. The plot was great and I can't wait for the second installment. Too bad there's no date of expected publication. Or I didn't find it, whatever.
